I think we all agree on this :) |

The current baselayout is there to fulfill a different purpose than what |
| 12 |
Gentoo-embedded aims for. There is a lot of overhead and bulkiness with |
| 13 |
the current baselayout for an embedded project. Just think of the |
| 14 |
dependencies it has on gawk, bash, and some other stuff. Also I am |
| 15 |
wondering whether the current init scripts are too much for an embedded |
| 16 |
system. Maybe a much simpler init system is needed for embedded. Dont |
| 17 |
know. |

What I think this project should aim though, is to somehow categorize |
| 20 |
and have subprojects which in turn each of them would require different |
| 21 |
sets of baselayout (full, lite), libc (glibc, uClibc/dieltlibc), etc... |
