This is my first weekly status report, so I'll introduce my project a
little.  I'm building a web-based application in PHP (with MySQL) that
will allow the user to build a customized image of a linux
installation.  The intent is to support various different
architectures/profiles, using the binary packages currently found on
tinderbox.dev.gentoo.org.  Users should be able to produce tarballs
or, I hope, ISO images, etc.

Also, I'd like to note before I get down to the status part, that if
anyone would like to volunteer to do some web or graphic design for
the project, whoever ends up using it (or their eyes) will probably
thank you.  I'm a much better web programmer than designer.

As of now, I've made local copies of three different package sets to
work with, default-linux/amd64, hardened/x86, and embedded/beagle.
I'm working with solar to get some more packages added to tinderbox so
I can test things more completely, but as of now my backend can
generate a complete target environment for any of the above profiles
and attempt to emerge system (the only one where enough binpkgs are
available to actually complete this is the amd64).  The backend polls
the database for requested builds and builds them as requested,
sending detailed logs back to the database.

The frontend is coming along nicely, currently featuring user login,
build request (as of now just choosing a name and selecting the
profile), and log viewer.

All comments, questions, suggestions, etc. are welcome.
