Rafael, thanks for your answer. |

I skimmed over your suggestions and found they have slightly different |
| 4 |
targets than what I was aiming for. What I had in mind was something |
| 5 |
like sisela (http:/the.earth.li/~martin/sisela) It's almost perfect |
| 6 |
feature wise but not so well laid out if you think about |
| 7 |
maintainablility and extensions. It wrapps all and everything in one |
| 8 |
Makefile which seems to be rather unflexible (that reads: I had problems |
| 9 |
to update some outdated stuff). Besides, I'd rather prefer to use a |
| 10 |
consistent set of tools to build specifically tailored Applications. The |
| 11 |
general flexibility of the gentoo (meta)distribution looks very |
| 12 |
promising in that regard. I have seen an embedded profile in |
| 13 |
/usr/portage/profiles and will start to play with that. |

thanks |
