Shouldn't be a problem.  Even if I get hit by a bus it shouldn't take too
long for the userbase to self organize a new source of errata.  Plus, as
I'm working on this respin I'm making better notes.  Combined with the
upcoming ability to do everything inside a chroot means almost anyone will
be able spin a package.

Whitebox is a nice idea, but the idea of every organization of any size
eventually being able to roll their own customized internal distro based
off of it is even more interesting.
