I used remastersys in the past, before I discovered Refracta. I don't want to criticise personally anybody who writes code that actually works and publishes it as GPL.

However I feel more comfortable with a community-orientated project (Refracta) which has Debian roots. That's not considered a "grind" at all.

I see no "bullshit" going on here, no Ubuntu mentality, nobody throwing a public wobbler over their "intellectual property" and no plan to transfer it all to a corporate entity.

Sponsors and partners include HP, Dell, Acer, Fujitsu..

Just beware community projects can have their own problems when they become popular (ex-sidux user here)

No plans to quit here. I'll be using the refracta tools through wheezy, and I'm sure I'll want them for jessie. They'll be available. Whenever I get tired of doing it, I just set it aside for awhile. I get a natural break now, since wheezy just went stable and everything seems to be working.

If somebody wants to tell me how it should be done, I can listen to what they say and decide to do it or not. If I don't do it the way they want, they're welcome to change the code to suit their own needs. That's already happened a few times. Everyone can have what they want (and I'm not obligated to provide it for them.) Seems to work well.
