 I'm a person, who have been trying to build 1.3 for the last time. There is my
to-do list:

1. All packages from default profile should be able to be compiled.
For the current cvs snapshot:

pwlib  -- fail
openh323gk  --fail ( depends on pwlib )
grub -- fail
lm_sensors -- fail
ndiswrapper -- fail
vmware -- fail

2. Modify scripts/config/linux-2.6/config_linux to be able execute 'make
prepare' without hack below:

+++ scripts/prepare.mod 2007-02-09 12:56:17.000000000 +0000
@@ -169,8 +169,8 @@

        set_all_kernel_options drivers/i2c

-       make oldconfig || exit 1
-
+       ( yes | sed 's/y//' | make oldconfig ) || exit 1
+
        if [ "$CONFIG_LINUX_VERSION" = "2.4" ]; then
                make dep || exit 1
        else
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
So, I mean all necessary parameters should be defined for clean 'make oldconfig'
execution.

3. Review the list of software from up-to-date point of view.

4. Create test release and find volunteer to test it!
