Well, while I agree that there is no great need for binaries and having
to much preconfigured, I have the opinion that a cast without the mage
changing anything from the defaults should succeed. This should be what
we test before grimoire releases.
Offering a set of cache tarballs from those test builds for the
convenience of folks, or just for rescue purposes, wouldn't exactly
hurt, neither. Heck, our ISO partly consists of those, right?

Sure. For me it started as something less cumbersome than managing LFS
all by myself. All the power to me. I can take an age-old system that I
didn't update for years for some reason and just modify the glibc spell
to patch the GHOST fix in --- without hurting any part of the setup
that might rely on not updating the whole system (to the next service
pack / major release that still is oficially supported).
Alrighty then,
Thomas
