Ray,

I keep looking for A Debian distribution that is up to date.  Progeny
is still using 2.2.x kernels.  Even LibraNet is using 2.4.3 with
reiserfs (which sounds like inviting trouble to me).  Have you done
much with either of these?  How difficult/time consuming is it to
bring either of these distros into the modern world?

Alas, I've gotten too spoiled with gentoo or jblinux or even Mandrake,
for that matter.
