Hi, I am indeed planning to tag a new version of systemconfigurator soon. The version number will be 2.2.9. It will contain the two tools. At the same time I'll need to tag another systeminstaller-oscar version and take out scconf_tool from there. From my point of view there is no need for a kexec module or plugin in systemconfigurator. There is need for a kboot module, but when that will be finished, it will be integrated into systemconfigurator and _not_ be a separate rpm.
systemconfigurator is there to configure the client node, not to reboot it.
