A few months ago David indicated the Cauldron team would change directions
and move away from the current scripts toward a 'big tarball / chroot'
install method, I believe based on the "silver thistle" ISO morfic put
together. Do you intend to stick with the current scripts instead? What
can you say about this?

(I'm not biased toward one or the other but this seems a big question that
should be made explicit.)

Thanks.
