We've tried it to make it as simple as it gets with Revisor. Any
troubles with that, and you can come knocking on our door.
I don't think we're on the same page here. The usage case I'm talking
about has nothing to do with a user making a custom spin. (and I
assume thats entirely what revisor is about).
My usage case involves a user installing a standard LiveCD spin, but
wanting - with the least effort possible - to upgrade that installed
system to the the package list of a similar, but not space-constrained
_official_ spin.
Let me know if I'm confused, and if revisor is also about revising
installed systems.
