Thanks for the helpful comment and also for Ansible in general! I'll take a good, close look at it - you might find me in your IRC channel sometime soon as I poke around Ansible, trying to see if it might be a good idea to port things over.

I know we were looking at Boxen as a way to roll out environments to our dev machines, and we are hoping that our existing Puppet configs will work well with that effort (since Boxen uses Puppet). Do you think it's at all possible that there will be some sort of adapter to allow Boxen to use Ansible? I have no idea if that would a good idea or not (I haven't looked in to either Boxen or Ansible enough yet) but that's the sort of thing that would likely help steer our decision process.

Sure thing -- Jesse Keating has been working on a side project called 'ansibox', which is effectively about taking boxen like ideas and applying them to Ansible. He's 'jlk' in #ansible and you should stop by and say hey. It's new, but it has the same kind of 'choose what you want and we'll make it for you' kind of workflow.
