Hello!

So, I think we now want to start working on a bootable distro.

However, I would add a less ambitious 0.3 milestone, first, ideally to
be released before July.  For 0.3, I would like to add actual
cross-compilation support.  If everything goes well, that would allow
the MIPS/N64 port to be bootstrap (and perhaps an ARM port too?).  0.3
would also add interesting packages (GTK+, for instance), and bug fixes.
WDYT?

Working on support for a bootable distro will require some thought and
design, and that should be started ASAP.  I=E2=80=99ll send an email in the=
 next
few days to discuss my current thoughts.
