[Baypiggies] VirtualEnv and Django question

[Brent Tubbs]

Grrr my clumsy thumb hit a bad key and sent a half finished email...

Anyway I was going to say that I made a package for configuring Nginx,
Gunicorn, Supervisord, and Nginx for you, and setting up the
virtualenv.  See http://pypi.python.org/pypi/silk-deployment/0.2.4 .
