I have (personal) conflicts, so I couldn't attend anyway... We (rPath) are just now in the process of committing some new bits to Conary that will make Boots a lot easier to build, and especially a lot easier to keep current -- "Capsules". (BTW, this is also the main reason that we haven't started making any obvious progress on Boots packaging per se. First I had other personal commitments that I had to keep, but since then I've seen this work coming along and just been waiting for it to be ready. We're still working on refining it, but at least you can see the progress we've made so far in mercurial tip Conary.) Anyway, more on the Capsules feature later, when it is closer to ready for more widespread testing... Just wanted to let folks know that I haven't forgotten about this. :) For Boots, the goal is to be as close to Fedora as reasonably possible while packaging it up within Conary. I'd think that fl3 would be interesting for FOSDEM...
