What I think we should do is:
1. Clean up the build scripts so that they are more maintainable, if anyone wants to do that soon, that would be really helpful. 2. Update the scripts to use current SVN (soon to be 6.7). and update the BLFS packages as well. 3. Either update XFCE to 4.6.2, or replace it with LXDE (and we should add XFCE and/or LXDE to the book, and add back HAL support since it's usable again.) 4. And elect a new maintainer for this package. I will really apprecate it if the LiveCD has gone back alive, as I've been using Sidux to build LFS, and I would love it if I can matain this project. -- William Immendorf The ultimate in free computing.
