Hi AJ, thanks for the email. Actually I am basing the JeOS on the minimal pattern. I tried to set up a project on the buildservice that was linking all the minimal pattern rpms (and dependencies), so software appliances could be projects on the buildservice that where build on JeOs project (from a technical point of view. The UI may be a new web application). However, some rpms are missing (the kernel for example) and it looked like I could not set up my project as a build platform. That makes me consider installing my own build service and define JeOS as a build platform and then modify the web UI or make a new one that runs the kiwi and is more software appliance oriented. That will have a lot of sense, especially when multiple build services can be connected. Meanwhile, I've started conversations with possible sponsors, so I am looking for a very good server with very good bandwith, and that is not costless ;) . However the conversations are still in a very early stage. So, what do you think is the best approach? Especially for updating to the new versions of JeOS to the new openSUSE versions.

How far are you? Are you able to create first images? What functionality do you want to have in them and how large are the images? We have done for openSUSE 10.3 and also for openSUSE 11.0 some work to make the minimal system smaller so that you can create a small appliance. If you have any ideas on what else can be done for Lime JeOS in the base distribution, please discuss it here.
