OpenChurch and Aegir

Events happening in the community are now at Drupal community events on www.drupal.org.

Is anyone working with OC in an Aegir workflow? I have questions related to that which may just be due to my lack of familiarity with the distro process. I attempted to create a platform using git clone because I wanted to test the latest version. I directed the platform to the openchurch.make but it failed. Is there a particular make file I should set the front end on or should I build the core and distro. Any help in directing me to a more efficient workflow would be greatly appreciated.

OpenChurch is available in

OpenChurch is available in Barracuda http://drupal.org/project/barracuda
(That means it has been tested and works. They don't include distributions that won't work.)
Barracuda is built around Aegir, so it seems to me like it should work. I've not actually installed OpenChurch in Barracuda or aegir though, sorry.

Makefile

Can't remember exactly, but I may have run into a similar problem. I made my own makefile in /var/aegir and this worked.

api = 2
core = 7.x
projects[openchurch][type] = core
projects[openchurch][download][type] = file
projects[openchurch][download][url] = http://ftp.drupal.org/files/projects/openchurch-7.x-1.9-alpha3-core.tar.gz

My server uses Barracuda rather than raw Aegir. It's absolutely the way to go. So I could have set up an Octopus server to install OpenChurch automatically, as jtbayly mentions.

Got it working

I did get it working. I just had to do a drush make and then everything went as normal. Aegir can't seem to do its thing until there is a valid code base. Now the only question I have is was it the correct version. I am still getting the errors on the calendar page that I was thinking were corrected. I need to find some documentation on proper workflow. Thanks for your help and patience with me as I try to put the many pieces together.

Ya it definitely works with Aegir. The demo site actually is running off of Omega8.cc's hosted aegir service:
http://demo.openchurchsite.com

So on occasion when I want to upgrade the demo site I just migrate it to a new version. Going to launch a new paid hosting service this month most likely for OC.

I fixed most of the notice errors last night in dev. I just need help testing them.

Getting drush errors that I can't figure out in my dev branch unfortunately so you won't be able to see the fixes unless you build it yourself.

Excellent

Pardon my ignorance but I am confused about which version I should use for my production environment and which for my dev? When you say build it myself what exactly do you mean. I apologize but most of this I have learned myself and I still am a newb in so many ways. If you want to direct me to some docs, I am happy to study up.

You will just use the most
