I was wondering how our developer workflow would go for the publictest
boxes.. people are using them for development and I wonder what stage
of work we want things to move projects from one set to another.

Scratch development: publictestXX.fedoraproject.org
Integration development: XX.dev.fedoraproject.org
Staging/QA: XX.stg.fedoraproject.org
Production XX.fedoraproject.org

So for the insight project. Work would go on
publictestXX.fedoraproject.org.. and when it was ready to look at for
production we would move it to say staging or dev? When it was ready
for staging we would lock it down and move it to that git tree and
push it out to see how it works in a 'real' environment. After it was
finally tested there we would move to production?

That is the initial picture in my head.. I just want to see if it is accurate.
