Hi Jen,

If needed i can help with it, im with you. Vbox images are a great way 
of setting a development enviroment and with a plus that we can release 
of updated images earlier and often.

Also, there is a plus that we can fetch images with Ubuntu already 
installed lefting just the work to install the development code in it.

Hope to Help !
