[dcphp-dev] Easy development VMs for WordPress with Vagrant & Ansible

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.
