hack a new platform into an existing set (/data/all/001/mynewplatform)

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

I want to add a platform, but I don't want to put it in /data/disk/o1/static/.

I've written a script (attached) to download drupal to the existing global area (say, /data/all/001/mynewplatform), tweak it, create a client version (say, (/data/disk/o1/001/mynewplatform) and tweak that too.

What's the next bit? What is the drush command - perhaps a hostmaster extension - that adds it to the list of available Aegir platforms?

Progress?

This is just what i was looking for. It worked well for me, I just manually added the platform to the octopus users control panel afterwards.

Did you happen to make any further progress with this? Would love to see the next part working.

Thanks!

I've collected all my BOA adventures - including this - in a document here: http://wiki.internetmachines.co.uk/mediawiki/index.php?title=BOA

I've made progress on understanding the drush part, but not enough. Response in the issue queue is quick, but I am finding this BOA group is a barren wasteland.

how do you feel about making a support request at http://drupal.org/project/issues/octopus?
