Comment:

 The current F7 custom spin is based around a few custom packages:

 Likely to cause no problem:
  idmgr
  ds-backup-server

 Lots of trouble:
  xs-pkgs
  xs-config

 xs-config is a ton of nasty hacks. We need to clean it up and do something
 long-term maintainable with it. Anyone keen on taking this on, please
 discuss strategies first ;-)

 And finally the xs-livecd package, containing kickstart files that drive
 livecd. These are causing a lot of trouble, mainly due to livecd being a
 bad fit for the job. So the F9 port will probably involve a switch to
 pungi or something similar. See the Pungi tasks in this tracker...
