This brings another question do we want to keep maintaining this profile? BLFS is such a fast moving target it seems a bit impossible currently. I personally would like to see it continue, but I currently have no time to keep up with it anymore, my plate is full enough with LFS and CLFS and I know Joachim's time is limited.
Well, limited is still an overstatement. These days I literally have *no* time left (or maybe just enough to keep up with this mailinglist and handle e-mail). I've been thinking about this, and it doesn't seem like the situation will change a lot (mind you that next semester I'll even have 6 courses compared to 4 this semester).
Furthermore, my interest in the BLFS profile (and using xml for automated builds in general) has become very small. I'm more of a webdesigner now, and I want to dedicate more time to that. Therefore, I have decided to give up my job as BLFS profile maintainer.
I've really appreciated the time I've been around here, and I've learned a lot from (n)(A)LFS. I still find it amazing how a group of strangers can build up something like (A)LFS. It was a pleasure working together with the team.
PS: I'm not really leaving the project entirely. I'll keep assisting (read: bugging ;-)) people on this mailinglist whenever I have the time.
