Thing is that SRCD does a lot more things than our mini ISO does. As a result, keeping it going on half a dozen architectures is more work than maintaining our arguably very simple images. There is a reason why we abandoned making the "fat" install images a while back and now only do them as one-offs for special events (like the 10y anniversary). While using SRCD will add manpower to our image-making, its userbase will add constraints (X, Y and Z need to keep working, even if we and our users never use it). I'm not sure it's a net benefit in widening the audience several orders of magnitude more than widening the developer pool. Regards, Tobias -- "Brain, konban wa nani o shimashitai?"
