I would suggest that what has been produced is great but that it has a
way to go before I would call it ready for the masses.

If the tool is easy to use, then it is probably better to let people
simply build what they want.

This is an interesting one. As it stands, the build works from a single
repo. To add in Extras means changes either in the way either anaconda
and/or kadishi work.

But it is a good idea. At this time, I have had to manually merge
fedora, fedora-updates and some of my own rpms to produce a single repo
that the CD can be built from.
