Your baby is my bathwater.  I don't want the operating system you're

trying to build, then it shouldn't be hard for you to find like minded
people to stake out your own piece of the linux user pie.  I wish you
luck with that.

Extras had significantly fewer packages, no multilib, no deltarpms, no
update metadata, fewer arches, and was ran on different hardware.
