 Great.  Set up an atlas dir on vescum.

 atlas.tpo and the data comes from somewhereelse.tpo, right?

 We can move it to a different host if you have progressed further.

 need/want access to the static pages, nor would atagar.)

 weasel at vescum:~$ getent group atlas
 atlas:x:1535:art,atagar,karsten

 yes.

 > Not sure about that.  There will be two Python bits: 1) a Python cronjob
 that requires a few gigs of disk space and a database and 2) a JSON-
 serving Python thing that can get plugged into Apache.  I'd guess 1
 shouldn't live on the current WGSI-serving webservers.  1 and 2 should
 live on the same host.

 What kind of database?  sqlite or postgres?


 > We don't need a VM for the Python parts now, but maybe in a month or two
 from now.  I can open a new ticket then.

 Do that.


 > I can maintain this service, possibly together with atagar.

 Good.
