That sounds like good advice to me.

I believe we need to drive for the requirements first.  What is the
"intent" or the target audience of VivA?  Is it as a method for easy
installation that leads to production use, or easy instance that leads
to demonstration?

With the former, building a RPM or installable package is a favorable
route. With the latter, then the puppy or Live CD route seems logical.

I'm a Fedora/Gentoo/FreeBSD person (and SUSE again once they release the community version), so you'll be hard pressed to support each and every
single one of those on the get-go.  It may be easier to build out the
Semi version in this scenario.

For the doctor that doesn't know much about VistA (but a little bit
about Windows and a little bit more about linux), then I think the Live
CD or "demo on demand" system should work well.  If you then opt to go
with an install on your favorite distro, is that where Semi does its
thang?
