Thank you for pointing out that I mispoke. I very much meant to restrict my comment in that post to mean 'contributing' to the cvs system and not the 'buildsystem' in full that will be put in place over the next month or so which will feed on material in the cvs server and spit out packages.
Bottom line: no buildsystem -- not yet a fair question to expect a yes or no on.
In addition to dag's own tools, we have the approaches of PLD, Mezzanine, caos-1, the Tao scripts, the Centos scripts, http://www.autobuild.org/, http://www.scons.org/, http://www.luntsys.com/luntbuild/index.html, anthill. heck, even RH's own Beehive already exist.
Why a closed design cathedral approach?
