It is in the Open Virtual Machine format for use in either VirtualBox or VMWare.

It is currently running the Ubuntu 10.04 OS with Web2Py-r2084, Eden-r889 & Eclipse 3.5

  3. Eclipse is preconfigured with the above directory.
  4. w2p is an alias to open an interactive web2py shell
  5. Firefox is pre-populated with Eden bookmarks.
