it is based on the joyride series,  there will be no sync in the future.  
approved updates will get tagged in from joyride when they are proven to fix 
bugs

Its completely manual. it is designed for doing release candidate builds,  
much the same as update.1 builds were done.

Yes,  It needs to be approved for inclusion by release engineering.  without a 
trac ticket approved (most likely by Michael) I wont change anything.  If 
anyone else changes pilgrim  I will revert the changes.
