Idea for alternative Calligra deployment option

[Dmitry Kazakov]

Hi, Jaroslaw!

I thought about an idea like that for quite a long time but for a bit
different usecase (and implemented it last Saturday (just a coincidence :)
)).

*The Usecase*
Here in Moscow I have several friends, who are painters/architects. They do
not have Linux and, generally, are not going to install it, but they wanted
to try out Krita.

*Current Solution*
So I prepared a VirtualBox image with Linux Mint 14 for them. It has two
pre-installed programs: Krita and an installation script written by David
Revoy, which will help them to update Krita from git. The graphical tablet
can be forwarded via USB directly to the virtual machine, so the pressure
works fine.

Here is the link to the image (4GiB):
[WARNING] Be careful, the system language is set to Russian!

After importing to the VirtualBox it will unpack to 10GiB.

*Current Results*
I have no results so far since I published the image only last Saturday and
my friends didn't have time to play with it yet :)
