I'm sort of echoing Mike's comment here, but I started to move away from LEAF because a) it remained "floppy" centric, b) no 2.6 support, c) the ipkg guys have come up with a good scheme for automatable over the wire updates.

On the other hand, I still do like the "liveCD" aspects, if standard distros (BEring, Bering-uC, Wireless) all provided an easy/default means of separating out configuration into separate media - I remember some discussions in this regards, not sure if there has been any implementation.

In any case, I did roll a 2.6-based version of Bering late last year (started out as a project effort, turned into a labor of love - thanks guys!), could probably push it back into one of the project trees if there is any interest. I'm not sure I'll be able to devote much time to it moving forward, though. Comments/thoughts - Mike, others?

Eric,
Have you or anyone else on the bering-uclibc team asked for help?

Yes, the framework and the lack of lwp's has been mentioned from to time on the leaf lists.
To gain users we should do something about the user experience, but as
long as nobody steps up to create 'lwp' (webconf) packages, there is
not much we can do about it.
How would someone help? Is there documentation on creating lwp webconf
packages? I see a chapter in the install guide, but nothing in the devel
guide.

http://leaf.sourceforge.net/doc/guide/install-bering-uclibc/Webconf-Configu
ration.html

The developer configuration is here:
http://leaf.sourceforge.net/doc/guide/webconf-howto.html

and has been available from day one in Nathans cvs repository.

It also looks like webconf isn't enabled by default.

It has been introduced as default web-interface and therefor enabled about a year ago - the documentation is a little bit older (or just fits for earlier LEAF versions :)).
