The trickiest point is /etc/sysconfig/olpc-scripts/network_config - the rest is relatively portable. xs-pkgs is overbroad. I will tighten that up when we move to F9, perhaps earlier. Is there any reason to keep this offlist?

Ask on server-devel@ and I guarantee reply. Ask in private and there's a good chance of... /dev/null :-) Also - I've filed a few "task/enhancement" bugs on the tracker (component:schoolserver) that describe the technical challenges of porting to F9 -- you are enterprising enough to be using F9 :-) , so do read those. Also look at stuff about reworking xs-config. - there's been good traffic lately on server-devel@ explaining my plans and some related architectural stuff.
