ANN: ElastiCluster acquires support for installing Julia

Hello,

I would just like to let you know that ElastiCluster, a command-line tool to create and configure cluster systems on various clouds (OpenStack, AWS, GCE, and anything supported by Apache LibCloud), has recently acquired playbooks for deploying Julia.

So, for instance, you could create a JupyterHub server with support for Julia notebooks in any of the above clouds, or deploy a batch-queing system for running MPI-parallel jobs with Julia preinstalled; see a few example configs at: https://github.com/gc3-uzh-ch/elasticluster/tree/master/examples

These are my first steps in the Julia world, so I would be grateful for any feedback on how to improve the playbooks, make a better default config, etc.

Cheers,
Riccardo
