Hi Samy,

 - it would be great if you could use this mailing list to coordinate
work :-) -- it would be great if your efforts end up in improvements
(ideally as patches) to the kickstart configuration we use, and to the
xs-config we are using.

One concrete thing to get started would be replacing the current
BIND+DHCP with dnsmasq. On a base XS install, ps_mem.py (from
http://www.pixelbeat.org/scripts/ps_mem.py ) reports that BIND is
sitting on almost 30MB of RAM. Yuck.
