Hello Bruce,

Has the BLFS team thought of letting users add packages to a wiki? There would 
be LFS/BLFS and then a wiki with user submitted packages with commands and 
configurations. A wiki can also get out of hand if not properly managed, but 
could be a good guide beyond BLFS. Of course, there is the hints project, but a 
wiki could be helpful if well maintained. It'd be a beyond blfs wiki for users 
to utilize. Just an idea, and not really a request.

Sincerely,

William Harrington
