Check out terrarium #1

Hi,

We just came across your project and are excited at the prospect of integrating it into our development work flow. For requirements management, we currently use a tool that we developed internally and released called terrarium (https://github.com/PolicyStat/terrarium).

My initial feeling is that pip-accel and terrarium could work well when used together, so I thought I would share our project. Let us know what you think!

Hey Kyle!

Wow, we published pip-accel just a few hours ago and are already getting feedback, that was quick! I hadn't come across Terrarium before, it looks really interesting (it also has a much better and more aspiring name than pip-accel...)

I'm just going through the readme now... In a sense Terrarium and pip-accel seem to solve some of the same problems, however they work at very different granularity levels if I understand things correctly (pip-accel caches individual binary distributions while Terrarium works on complete virtual environments).

I'll have to play around with Terrarium a bit in the coming days :-).
