Nice. I actually have a statsd template locally I was going to merge in. But I like your use of a PPA better than compiling node.

At first I wasn't sure if using a PPA was the right course of action. The only other template that relies on a PPA (that I can think of) is postgresql. What do you think about adding ppas as a rubber*.yml configuration option so they can live as a separate part of the bootstrap phase, eg:

roles:
  statsd:
    ppas: [user/ppa1, user/ppa2]

With a setup phase called rubber:add_ppas dispatched from rubber:bootstrap.

Anyway, just a thought. I'll probably hack on it when I get some free time if there is any interest for such a feature.

What's the status for this? Curious if there is any plan to merge this pull-request.

It'll get there in one form or another. Sorry for the delay in all this. I put a bit of a moratorium on new templates in order to keep the number of moving parts down while adding a few other big features. I have one outstanding major bug that I hope to get to soon and then hope to clean house on PRs.

Excellent, thanks!
