A minor update: I will have to postpone today's release. The reason for it is that I have to think a series of social issues related to this project. I felt that this announcement was premature since the beginning, but I did feel that there would have been a correct rectification on behalf of people from a certain project (LFS) of which the story and "evolution" is rather extremely well known in this community as well. I am certain that my motives are very well understood by the people in this list and elsewhere as well. I thought that an automation and management layer that would have worked for all the 3 projects (clfs, diy-linux, lfs) could have been of interest elsewhere as well. I do not think that there is anything more to say related to this and frankly LFS has left this user/developer with a bitter taste as well. I will take some time to make certain that things end up well for the good guys, I will continue informing from now on on the mailing lists of my project (http://lists.odreex.org). I would very much like to hear from your community and all who are interested and hopefully work for this common goal together. Thank you for your comprehension.
