I have been experimenting with this, and have successfully packaged =
base.  I figured out that make packages would do that.

http://skynet.desktopbsd.net/packages/

I have been unable to figure out how to package the kernel yet.  Is it =
possible at this stage to do that with another command, or is it =
something that will be added later?  I would love to be an early tester, =
and help out with this effort.
