Ubuntu launched Juju <http://juju.ubuntu.com> earlier this year. Juju allows anybody to instantly deploy, integrate and scale any server software on any cloud or server. In seconds you can deploy Gitlab<https://jujucharms.com/fullscreen/search/precise/gitlab-2/?text=gitlab#bws-readme>. However we are missing instant deployment and integration of subversion. Since Juju is open source, anybody can extend it and use it. If somebody in the Subversion community would make a "subversion charm", then anybody in the world would be able to instantly deploy subversion and get it integrated into a continuous deployment architecture for instance. Find out more about how easy it is to make a charm<https://juju.ubuntu.com/docs/authors-charm-writing.html>. You could even win $10,000 if you participate in the Juju Charm Championship<https://juju.ubuntu.com/charm-championship/>in the category Continuous Deployment for instance...
