We've already been through this a few months ago and we elected not to. |

Corey's already outlined some of the reasons why. Basically, it's trying |

to fit a square peg into a round hole. |

There is real code written for our current installer. Have you looked at |
| 12 |
that? My feeling is you haven't. Constructive criticism is good, but you |
| 13 |
should at least know what it is that you're criticizing. |

Also, there's nothing preventing you or anyone else from taking up this |
| 16 |
project on their own and running with it. If you're of the belief that |
| 17 |
basing an installer off of anaconda is the best solution, then by all means |
| 18 |
-- go for it. By the same token, I hope you understand if we continue to |
| 19 |
pursue the path we've already selected. You're welcome to help out with |
| 20 |
that project if you decide not to pursue your own. |
