After seeing what is written at the jigdo part of the cookbook, I
know the writing needs to be improved and perhaps more needs to be
understood. I have read enough to know this method was invented by the
Debian team. It is nice that their current software is available as a
yum item. Much cleanup and care is needed to make the jigdo clear and
understandable to a normal Fedora user.
To write any thing the writer must use the software and succeed in
making a respin of Fedora 8. This is we know something rday did today. I
can edit the current page because I clicked edit and there it was. I
think rday can do the same.
