> package files as RPM and dpkg do, Conary uses networked repositories
> containing a structured version hierarchy of all the files and
> organized sets of files in a distribution.  http://wiki.conary.com/
> 
> rBuilder Online is a collaborative development environment that can be
> used to easily package open source software and produce complete
> distributions.  http://www.rpath.com/

> I came to both the September and October BALUG meetings on The Digital
> Tipping Point and shell programming respectively and found the topics
> interesting and the audience knowlegeable and enthusiastic about
> Linux.  I'd love to be able to present on these couple of new and
> exciting technologies that I've worked with the past few months.
