I want to get away from using images and make you all use the install

Please don't. The images were a major factor in my decision to use
prgmr.com.
Huh. Thing is, I don't want to be in the business of managing images;
I think I'm not doing a good enough job of it now.
Hm. Well, i could put more effort into just making it easier to use
stacklet images. hm. I wonder if I could make srn write us an
installer that just pulls from stacklet?
what other image sources/formats would you use, and is there an easy way
(for me) to facilitate you using images that aren't my problem?
But yeah. Personally, I dislike images, for a bunch of reasons; first
among those is that they usually end up with undocumented gotchas. A
nice .ks package install makes it much easier to know what is actually
in the image.
But yeah; the whole idea here is that it's your machine, and you should
be able to do whatever you like with it. And hell, it looks like the
whole industry is moving towards images and away from package installs,
so what do I know?
