Actually I will be a developer. :)=20

My day job is building internal CD's of servers. A single type of server
per CD, i.e mailserver, radius, dbases, Xserver etc.

I'm just getting up to speed w/ the existing codebase for a demo
mailserver cd (by Wed!).

The postinst hooks in pgi make custom CD's like that much nicer to use
then the boot-floppies from Deb. My main constraint is _no_ net
downloads and no generic packages. Everything has to be simple to set up
for the tech service types.

As one of the servers is going to be X, we want all the unstable desktop
apps. That's where I'll be focusing after familiarity.

Cheers,
lance
