Mezzanine contains a fabric installation that can take a vanilla ubuntu install, and have a production server up and running with Postgres, memcached, et al, in a single command:

I believe this is actually easier than deploying Wordpress to production.
- FilterJoe 14y agoVery cool - I didn't know about this. However, this still presupposes you have a local Python/Django/Mezzanine installation. Simple for a Django web developer, probably not too bad for a non-Django web developer - but it's a bit much to expect a non Developer to set up Python, Django, and Mezzanine on their local system. On the other hand, I see a way to make this simple for a non developer. Set up a virtual machine with everything all set up. Then all the end user would have to do is download VMware or virtualbox. Then download the VM image with Ubuntu/Django/Mezzanine/Fabric. And then you'd be approaching the same level of simplicity of getting started with self-hosted Wordpress.
- xfour 14y agoNice Stephen, was hoping to see you in this conversation. I think this all comes down to really the fact that 2$ hosts have php installed by default and probably don't have shell.
