That would be great, but can we compete with getting >400 votes for those specific configurations, which might put us up for winning the contest in seven months time. See https://bitnami.com/stacks -- scroll down to "coming soon." and https://wiki.bitnami.com/contest_rules Presumably the applications listed need some configuration after booting to make them useful (like adding users / content), so then to broaden our audience of potential voters perhaps an alternative strategy would be to package PharoLauncher with either an RFB or web interface, with some enhancements: * choose an image to boot into straight away * better facility to download and choose between multiple VMs * widen choice of templates to include other dialects based off CogVM e.g. Squeak, Newspeak * build new images from basic Pharo + Configuration selected from Configuration Browser * built-in images that provide testdrive applications like pharo + seaside + magritte + voyage (mongo pharo layer) + mongodb * presuming bitnami have some facility to pass a configuration script a newly booted image, act on script to perform the above actions. cheers -ben On Sun, Jun 7, 2015 at 7:08 PM, stepharo <stepharo@free.fr> wrote:
Hi pharoers
we got in contact with bitnami and I would love to see two bitnami apps around Pharo: - basic pharo - pharo + seaside + magritte + voyage (mongo pharo layer) + mongodb
So who would like to help pushing this effort?

Hello Pharo Association
I wondered if you knew about Bitnami. Please check us out at www.bitnami.com. We provide over 120 apps and development stacks â many of them open-source. If you would like Pharo to be included in our marketplace, we have a contest https://bitnami.com/contest were you can nominate it, and encourage your community to vote for its inclusion.
Also, I wondered if you could put me in touch with any commercial companies within and around the Pharo ecosystem that might like to work with us as a software partner https://bitnami.com/partners/software
Kind regards Kevin
