Hey Bobb,

Something like Chef[0] or Puppet[1] might fit your bill.

They allow you to package your configuration into modules which can then be
dropped into an infrastructure that supports it.

I have been working with puppet, so if you have questions, fire away.


Regards,
Karim

All,

Seems like a simple question, but I'm not so positive the more I
think about it.

We've been working on an Automatic Vehicle Location application that
is loosely built on OpenSource Projects. I say loosely because most if
not all of the Open Source components could be swapped out for
Commercial versions if needed. There was a desire early on to
eventually open source parts of the project in some manner. Currently
this open sourced aspect is looking like a configuration/specification
for how data is stored and transferred between the components, and
this is what we propose to open up to the community. It's heavily
focused on the geospatial aspects for obvious reasons, but I would
suspect there may be other uses for the configuration unrelated to
tracking of vehicle locations.

Currently the components being used are (and there will likely be
more in the future) are:

MapServer

OpenLayers

GeoMoose

Postgres/PostGIS

Each of the these components has been configured specifically for the
project and these configuration templates would be included as part of
the project. There could even be an installer script included at some
point.

So, to put it more simply, does anyone here have any
suggestions/comments on how to proceed with project packaging?

Thanks

Bobb
