No memo, just what we've been using for lack (or ignorance) of an
alternative that allows us to adequately deploy and configure a system
quickly, and they are what we run our own continuous builds and smoketests
against for existing deployments.

We're at the same place as everybody else, we want better CI support, to
stop duplicating work and to have an easy-as-eating-pie tool for deployment,
so don't take the word "official" to mean we're putting any words in your
mouth, it was in quotes for a reason.
