Rik,

I'm responding offlist because my views have already been expressed
pretty thoroughly.

I thank you for the suggestion.  I won't be doing anything in Extras
until it is synchronised properly with Core.  Even then, I see no value
in working on Lilo (or even Grub) in Extras.  They are needed in the
Core and during installation.

I may later tackle something in Extras if it looks worthwhile.  However,
what few patches I've provided have generally been upstream (Linux, GCC,
INN, PERL) where all distros can benefit.
