A LEAF box should be able to check for updates and inform its
administrator that updates are needed.

-------------------------------------
I don't necessarily agree with this.  Part of the appeal of a base config'd
system for me is that even if it is hacked, there arn't many tools to use.
Remote update tools on my system would annoy me.  I don't want it talking.
Hell, I don't always know when my Windows system is trying to talk to
Microsoft.

I think at this point a securities page and posibly a leaf-securities mail
list for now.  For example, I would be willing to work up (AFTER I MOVE) the
page on the sshv1 issue.  What it's reported posible exploit is, links to
further information adn why one might use it anyway (Space) and posible work
arounds to use sshv2 (another floppy drive).

We are back to the directions point again.  This will tie into readily
identifiable distributions from LEAF.
Oxygen
Dachenstein 
Eigerstein <- perhaps we can start phasing this out for new people
Eigerstein2BETA <-perhaps this as well once Dachenstein is ready

Unless we are going to have a library page of packages available.
Hmmmm.......
I may work on this as well.  Have to look at the package management system
on sourceforge and see if we can develop a front end.  lrp packages can be
checked in, a description attached to it and a use with distributtion/kernel
box.  Hmmmmm....
