This is something that I have been mulling over but have not had the |
| 14 |
chance to act upon, mostly because I have been coding catalyst to get it |
| 15 |
to work correctly ;) |

Our initscripts are very Gentoo-centric, so sharing those would probably |
| 18 |
not be in our best interest (they work as is), but persistant homedirs |
| 19 |
would be cool (as well as a slew of other things). So would boot |
| 20 |
configurations that could be saved on a floppy or usb keychain. We can |
| 21 |
use portage in place of klik. You get the idea - there are many exciting |
| 22 |
opportunities here :) |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
First priority though is to get Catalyst the tool stabilizied. Then we |
| 25 |
can move on to things that are more fun ;) |
