Hey gang --

Thought I'd share this thing I built that may be of interest to the WordPress developers out there: a toolset for easily creating lightweight development virtual machines, with WordPress and all its dependencies already installed, configured and ready to go:

https://github.com/jalefkowit/Vagrant-Ansible-Wordpress

It's built on Vagrant and Ansible, so once you've got those installed setting up a clean new WordPress VM is just a matter of cloning the repo into an empty directory and then running "vagrant up" at your command prompt. Then just hit the IP address of the VM in your browser and boom, WordPress. (You can add an entry in your /etc/hosts to map a local domain name to the IP, too.)

There's going to be an article in an future issue of php[architect] (maybe the next one?) going into how to use it in more detail, but if you're on this list I'm guessing you can probably figure it out with just the README :-D

Anyway, it's saved me a bunch of time getting started in projects involving WordPress theme & plugin development, so I figured I'd share it on the chance it might help someone else too. Questions, comments, forks, pull requests, etc. are of course welcome.
