I was afraid of that :-).

I'm in the process of writing some documentation to help bring some our
people up to speed, and for a presentation on openpkg at next month's
Seattle Unix Group Meeting.  At this point I'm still learning my way around
openpkg, and various things like how it interacts with SuSE 8.1's runlevel
manager (more on that later).  My goal is something like ``Life With
djbdns'' where I get more into some specific examples and configurations.

Good stuff.

Do you have any examples on using ``openpkg index''?, and perhaps
some sample configuration files?
