Um, it seems to me that this discussion of builds and distribution
belongs on the dev list of the podling when/if there is a podling.
Unless someone feels that there's a problem so gigantic that it should

I'll go away on this. My concern has been to avoid setting an
impossible bar of organized cooperation as a prerequisite to voting
for the podling. It would be a wonderful thing if cooperation breaks

before the podling launches.
