It is operational in current Scripts. Right now it supports Cabal, CPAN, 
LuaRocks, and RubyGems. Interfaces to more systems would be very welcome.

There is a writeup in <http://mwh.geek.nz/files/gobo/lca2010/aliens.pdf> which 
describes the intent and interfaces.

Those are the important subprojects. You can have a look in 
<http://svn.gobolinux.org/tools/trunk/> for a more-or-less complete list. Of 
those, BootScripts, ChrootCompile, ConfigTools, Freshen, GoboHide, Installer, 
LiveCD, and Manager are in use or active in some way.

It has to get done. I'm not sure exactly where things stand at the moment, but 
I think at this point it is mostly a case of putting packages together and 
tying them up properly. The major change is the introduction of /System/Index, 
which I believe is mostly written but still in need of a lot of testing and 
attention. There is a writeup of that on the mailing list somewhere that I 
can't find right now, but there's also a brief discussion of it within my LCA 
paper from this year (<http://mwh.geek.nz/files/gobo/hier.pdf>, slides 
<https://lca2010.org.nz/slides/50181.pdf>).

Last I heard Hisham has a local spin running that he was working on but that 
wasn't quite ready for another prerelease ISO yet.

Either here or on the bugtracker.
