OK, just assume I would have written configuration files instead of
scripts. ;-)

You should commit everything what you created / changed manually and
perhaps a _short_ README with the link above or something like this that
somebody who stumbles upon the stuff knows where to read.

That what _Version_ _Control_ _Systems_ are good for, right?

What we want is what you manually created and the recipe to get an ISO
image of the current live CD using the current livehelper. Just update
SVN if any change might be needed.

I would commit this structure as is to SVN with some exceptions:
1. config/chroot_local-packages/python-psycopg2_2.0.12-1_i386.deb
-> what is the reason to stick to this older version than the
Debian packaged one?
2. config/chroot_local-includes/etc/postgresql/8.3
-> any reason to stick to PostgreSQL 8.3 instead of using the
future Debian default for Squeeze (8.4)
Could you please comment on this?
Thanks for your input in any case.
Kind regards
Andreas.
