[Voyage-linux] Voyage Customization framework and running a mini web server

[Kim-man 'Punky' Tse]

Hi Nick,

Yes, voyage distro and live CD are built by the customization framework 
too.   I have some private projects that use it too.  And I also have 
working prototype of voyage w/asterisk+zaptel built by this framework as 
well.  And yes, your MPD music can built using it.  After all, you have 
the customized voyage+mpd distro tarball that could use to install to CF 
using voyage.update.

As you know, i am interested to build mpd music server, if you can tell 
me what additional packages you installed and what local modifications 
to voyage you have made, I am able to implement it using customization 
framework.

Regards,
Punky
