Now with a git repository:

	http://klaus.vh.swiftco.net/lspp/git/

(Source and .noarch RPMs also available at the old location)

Here are the changes based on the initially published 0.6-1:

	add FIXME: compat_net isn't checked yet
	Use SystemLow-SystemHigh range for new administrative users
	polyinstantiate $HOME on user name
	Switch default partitioning back to LVM

Also, it now includes a simple "make-rpm" script to create RPMs. (It's
customizable, see the script header.)

Thanks to Linda for trying it out and reporting the non-LVM install
error. 

If you're not familiar with git, I recommend using the "cogito" frontend
which makes it work more like CVS, SVN or other familiar tools.

Initial checkout:

 cg-clone http://klaus.vh.swiftco.net/lspp/git/ lspp-config-repo/

Get upstream updates:

 cd lspp-config-repo/
 cg-update

Commit local changes and make a patch for e-mail:

 vi FILE
 cg-commit
 cg-mkpatch > ../my-changes.diff

See all local modifications:

 cg-diff -r origin

If you are planning on maintaining complex local changes, check out StGIT
("quilt for GIT").
