[Glass] GLASS appliance (VMWare virtual machine) still available?

[Dale Henrichs via Glass]

Jon,

The set of tools that Norbert is referring to veewee, vagrant, chef, 
etc. would be used to produce a GsDevKit appliance from scratch. The 
core installServer script would remain unchanged, but a number of the 
various copy/paste steps can be automated and different linux 
distributions can be used as a target ... It would also automate such 
tasks as installing a web server (like nginx) and could presumably 
automate the installation of daemontools and monit  as well

Basically you would decide what type of GsDevKit server you wanted built 
for you and you'd use a script that could produce a "custom" virtual 
machine on demand ...
