I couldn't agree more. I've always found our development environment to
be far too complex and to require unreasonable permissions. It's better
now than it was two years ago, but it's still not very good. My goal is
to be able to develop Pulp entirely inside a virtualenv, without having
to deploy anything across my system. FWIW, I recommend developing Pulp
inside virtual machines since the pulp-dev script will spew files all
over your FS, and since you have to disable selinux to develop.

Can you be more specific about this? I'm having trouble following what
you mean.

We have talked about automated builds, and jcline has been working on
automating testing which I think will complement automated builds nicely.
