Well, more specifically, Jordan and I talked a bit about using a WWW browser and CGI scripts to create the configuration manager for post-install stuff like adding/deleting users, changing /etc/sysconfig, etc. This was last summer when we were melting from heat and trying to finish the 2.0.5 installer at the same time.
