Both.

24 currently.

6 servers, 18 desktops.

web, mail, web/mail, ftp, 2 x database/nfs/nis

Precise control over what is being installed and how each package is
built (what optional features/depends are used). On most of the desktops,
I've sacrificed processor specific optimizations in order to share
binaries between intel/amd boxen.

> 5. What do you miss in SMGL?

Over other distributions? Nothing really.

Yes.
