Noah,
thanks for bringing that subject.
As far as I understand we won't be able to use some advanced features of MDB.
That is when we'll get to having a self-hosting system and functional MDB :)
Meanwhile I just use an no-op shell scripts instead of those. Would it be useful
if I'll publish a small package that installs these scripts in place ?
Otherwise if someone volunteer to take care of CTF support for PPC it'll be
wonderful.
