[Camps-users] Devzones on Nexenta

[Jon Jensen]

The name "devzones" caught my attention:

Devzones actually sound really neat, but they are IMO misnamed. They're 
zones, which are simply like VMs, but don't do much to actually facilitate 
development.

In particular the instructions there describe setting up one devzone the 
way you want, then cloning it. That has all the problems any "golden 
master" does, as Andrew Shafer of the Puppet project describes so well:

But I think if you took Nexenta + Devzones + Puppet + Camps you'd have 
something pretty handy!
