Regarding the =E2=80=9Cstable=E2=80=9D channel, it sounds nice, but again w= e need machinery to do automatic merging from master to stable when things are built (if I remember Julien=E2=80=99s proposal correctly.) I don=E2=80=99= t know, I=E2=80=99m not entirely sure how this could happen. :-) > - TeXlive... (sigh!) Oh right, definitely something we need for 1.0! It=E2=80=99s great that you already started looking at importing more packages from TeXLive, even if that turns out to be incredibly tricky. Then we=E2=80=99ll need a profile = hook so people have the option to directly install individual texlive packages in their profile. Thanks, Ludo=E2=80=99.
