All the work is on the server and I can bring you up to speed on the new 
build/packaging env.  I still need some python related help as well 
btw.. Next time you're in #ospkg I'll ping you or should I email 
details?  The nice thing about fox-7-4-merge is that you can run it once 
to pull the source and apply the patches on top of vanilla.. This fits 
perfectly with how I'm packaging.. If I had to guess. it would take me a 
day or less.. (maybe even a few hours if I don't hit any weirdness)
