8 GLI Status Update:
9 Just so you guys know, this functionality has been one of the primary
10 goals of the installer project since the beginning. It has been
11 backburnered for quite some time while we got the desktop-end up and
12 running. Now that it is almost stable, we have been shifting our
13 focus to getting automated mass-installs working. We have already
14 successfully completed a remote installs over XMLRPC. I just need to
15 finish up the UI so it's nice and useable. The netboot aspect will
16 take a little while longer to set up, but rest assured we are working
17 on it... or talking about working on it. :)
