0compile, combined with Zeroinstall's support for source bundles, enables us (1) to approach true platform-independence and (2) to provide users the opportunity to modify the source code of a package and rebuild it in a natural way.So unless the sender and receiver architecture match, the receiver needs to build the package from source and requires the usual tools (gcc, autoconf, etc) for that? How much space would those take up on the XO-1? I'm not arguing against it, BTW, quite the contrary: I've suggested a similar scheme [1] in the past.
