Quickstart 0.8 and Drupal 7

Events happening in the community are now at Drupal community events on www.drupal.org.

Hello,

I just finished a move to Austin TX and started to work with Drupal 7 in Quickstart.

QS 0.8 can install D7 using drush like this:
drush qc all --domain=powma.dev

If you change the ~/websites/default.make file like this:
api = 2
core = 7.x
projects[drupal][version] = 7.0-beta2
(add more modules here)

I think D7 includes an automated installer, so hopefully I can figure out how to remove the manual install step from the drush command.

Anyone have any other tips or suggestions?

Thanks,

Mike

Look in the help of drush. I thought there is drush si (site install) to install drupal 7 sites. Is not working for drupal 6.

Feature Idea: Integrate Aegir

(Sorry, I realized after I posted that this isn't really in the right thread...)

This may be completely overkill for a dev environment, but I can't think of an easier way to clone/create/manage new sites than the Aegir project (http://groups.drupal.org/aegir-hosting-system). I don't think it requires much overhead when it's installed and would likely be invisible to those who wouldn't care to use it.

I know one of the largest barriers to entry with Aegir is its complex installation. Sounds like a perfect reason to give it a quickstart!

Thanks for providing a great tool! So far I've enjoyed using it. It's mobile, it's clonable, it's a fast setup! Thanks!
