That would be great, but can we compete with getting >400 votes for
those specific configurations, which might put us up for winning the
contest in seven months time.
See   https://bitnami.com/stacks  -- scroll down to "coming soon."
and   https://wiki.bitnami.com/contest_rules

Presumably the applications listed need some configuration after
booting to make them useful (like adding users / content), so then to
broaden our audience of potential voters perhaps an alternative
strategy would be to package PharoLauncher with either an RFB or web
interface, with some enhancements:
* choose an image to boot into straight away
* better facility to download and choose between multiple VMs
* widen choice of templates to include other dialects based off CogVM
e.g. Squeak, Newspeak
* build new images from basic Pharo + Configuration selected from
Configuration Browser
* built-in images that provide testdrive applications like pharo +
seaside + magritte + voyage (mongo pharo layer) + mongodb
* presuming bitnami have some facility to pass a configuration script
a newly booted image, act on script to perform the above actions.
