How do you plan to keep up with updates
to contrib repos people keep on sources?
Will the contrib -> iso.bz2 conversion take
place on a nightly basis? Some sort of
keeping tabs on modification times?

Perhaps it would be nice if people with
contrib repos could themselves make the
ISOs and upload to 9grid or put it wherever
the central iso.bz2 repo will be.


Best,
