I would like to know which is the current state of this project, if its still being worked or is abandoned. I also have some doubts about what the components in the current codebase do, for example, the current incarnation of updated only holds metadata for the releases, profiles, files and such; my question is if updated is gonna continue just being a meta-data server and the client will handle the actual downloading and installing of the binary distributions using libfetch in the same style that pkg_install(1) and friends do? If so, how are you going to handle the binary packages? are they going to be the same chunks that the distribution cd's hold?.
