Hey Jeremy, Another lurker here. I regret that I haven't done more for the project, other than expose the Fedora people to the LFS devicemapper way of doing livecd copy on write, so that they could finally get their heads out of the sand and into the real livecd world. That devicemapper 'trick' has really had a profound brain-twisting effect on me. I hope to contribute some further interesting tricks back to the LFS project, at some point. That would classify as hitting the above point, and no doubt in the process hit the 3 below points as well. In all likelihood it will still be a while before LFS percolates to the top of my priority list, but it IS on my list. I have a tremendous amount of respect and appreciation for what you guys have done. Hang in there...
