Y U NO PACKAGE veewee WITH VAGRANT INSTALLERS

  1. Packaging veewee with Vagrant gives the end-user the expectation that Vagrant will also support VeeWee, which isn't true (more on this in a sec).
  2. Packaging veewee with Vagrant requires I make sure it works with Vagrant at all times (or at least at that point I package). I'm not willing to do this. Again, more on this in a sec.
  3. Vagrant 1.1+ (that is: experimental builds heading towards 2.0) will merge in VeeWee functionality in an officially supported way. Finally, Vagrant will be able to build its own boxes from ISOs. I'm not sure the name will remain veewee but the functionality will be the same and I've talked to @patrickdebois about this already.
