just wanted to chime in, too :)

i’m a buildout veteran and have recently switched to using pip+virtualenv+make 
(as have others in this thread) and i have to admit that i’m not looking back…

anything beyond local development setup i handle using a combination of ansible 
(for declarative setup) and fabric (for imperative tasks on top of the setup).

the ‘glue’ for all of this is a homegrown tool called ploy[1] - disclaimer: i 
have collaborated heavily on that tool with its main author florian schulze of 
mr.developer fame (a buildout plugin)

of course, i’m biassed, but i have to say that the ansible+fabric combination 
of ploy has been working out extremely well for us over the past 1-2 years - 
and our setups have grown to non-trivial dimensions without a hiccup, too.

hth,

tom
