I believe that we want to build things using Fedora's tools -- we actually would like Fedora to build the releases in future. So, this means that pilgrim goes away, or that pilgrim gets adopted by Fedora (the former, I guess!). Some work may be needed on Fedora's build tools, but I was extremely pleased to hear that Sugar-on-a-stick is being built with standard Fedora tools, and we now have a (nearly?-)functional Soas XO image. Details like security, signing and updates remain to be figured out, I believe. For now, having a partially bootable image based on rawhide will be a great start. It would be best to use your time with OLPC-F11 preparation - I don't see the current joyride going anywhere.
