I have to agree with this.  Long before module-starter came along, I
wrote a bash script which, using Template Toolkit, would build the
shell of a distribution for me.  It also managed source control,
various utilities that I enjoy, and set things up just the way I like
'em for my environment.  It would be nearly useless for anyone else.

Cheers,
