Right now it's a Java webapp running in Tomcat. I realize that this may not be practical for "production" use, but I find this environment productive. Once it is stable it might be possible to remove the Tomcat dependency. Maybe it can be compiled to native with gcj (?). If Java is a problem (FC4 comes with Java by default?) porting to Python shouldn't be a huge task. The delta repository builder is logically a separate tool, but I will bundle both in the same webapp for the moment. It could be invoked by a 'wget' request scheduled by cron. I hope to have a first release in about a week. If it turns out to be useful I will be looking for suggestions on the delta repository layout, delta file format etc Joe.
