Thanks for the tip. I'd actually seen SuSE studio earlier, but it's
by invitation only now, so I can't get much out of it (you can get an
invitation, but you have to commit to give them regular feedback and
all). I am planning on making this project portable to other
distros/package managers than Gentoo/Portage, though I'll only be
writing the actual code for a Gentoo/Portage setup.
