Hello Ken,
Thanks for sharing, I had only a brief look. In the meantime some
early thoughts while it downloads the data.

Well, you need only the recipe to build the VM. Fortunately there are
a lot of tools that help to do this. Unfortunately there are too
many, and not all of them focus on the reproducible side...
In the meantime I saw few main problems in your current document:
- No "One build step"
- Hardcoded path, for example
root = "/Users/mankoff/Documents/Papers/B/Brinkerhoff/"
- I did not found the Grass installation part, I guess I will have an
error later...
- Missing latex toolchain installation
Are you interested in fixing those issues? If yes please share your
progress or ideas.
Best,
Daniele
