openpackages.org

We're probably just a few days away from having the bootstrap (non-*BSD)
version of openpackages coughing along.  We got Darwin bootstrapped tonight
and will be doing one of the Linux distros tomorrow.  I should have HP-UX
working by Monday night.

I believe this will be a great help in bootstrapping and running ARK.

If anybody can help get this off the ground, it would be nice.

The site is <http://www.openpackages.org> and the CVS version of the code is
the way to go (at the moment).

Once I get it up and running I want to see source packages written for ark
and its dependencies (python may be the only one now).

I'm also really curious to look at CONS as an alternative to make as I hear
CONS has support for syncing with remote CVS repositories, which could be a
really good thing for users/developers of ARK (and PIKT and NTP).
