I've seen that you have updated both document (about resurrect and 
install_root). I'll read them. However, I found pretty strange to 
request feedback when the design has been done, the implementation has 
been done and the sorcery team has already decided that it will be a 
commited feature. What kind of feedback do you want? bug reports only?

As far as the proj3 branch is concerned, is it branched from devel or 
stable? (I'd be happy to use it ASAP in the ISO, but so far, the ISO has 
only used sorcery stable, which is more stable that 'devel' like the 
name imply).

I'll try to test it ASAP. I'm mainly interested for resurect feature to 
use it in the ISO installer.
