For anyone who is interested, the "Puppy community" have taken over Woof, the Puppy Linux builder. It is now called woof-CE (Community Edition). woof-CE is on github: https://github.com/puppylinux-woof-CE/woof-CE I no longer keep my Quirky build system in an online VCS, instead just upload tarballs every now and again: http://distro.ibiblio.org/quirky/quirky6/project/ Regards, Barry
