Well, everybody has seen the new version, and there were no bugs reported. 
I did get questions like "Where can I find mkrboot" from someone who
wanted to make a single disk, and "How do I get ppp working" on a set made
with Yard.  People definitely notice gBootRoot.  Remember Part II will
involve incorporating Yard, I forsee many ways of doing this.  Templates
could be used to allow people to choose from different styes .. Yard,
rtbt, bare min. working system + customized, etc.  Part I probably still
can use some features, which will be easy to add to the AI. 

I've been day dreaming about Part III.  I will start another project
called AVD "Aquired Virtual Distribution."  The client model to accomplish
this already exists, and to a large degree so does the server model.  I've
developed a database with Berkeley DB.  I want to convert this database to
run with SQL databases using DBI.  This will all be integrated with the
UML "http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/" approach, making testing the
creation of a new distribution a lot of fun.  Then this will be added as a
method to gBootRoot.

Keep adding any features you feel are necessary to Part I, and
any improvements.
