I can safely say that it builds regular installer ISOs, irregular 
installer ISOs, as well as installer ISOs that do not work if you change 
any random number the available settings involved without knowing what 
it is you're changing, as far as Fedora 9's Revisor (2.1.1) is concerned.

The defaults, certainly on Fedora 7, *just build* a workable ISO. Same 
goes for Fedora 8.

For the Revisor version in Fedora 7 (2.0.5 iirc); it just works. No 
extremely difficult settings for particular use-cases involved either. 
You might be better off composing Fedora 7 using Fedora 8 and the 
available Revisor package there though. And yes, Revisor does 
cross-compose between versions of distributions.

Kind regards,
