I would still love to find the time to work on
packaging cobbler, but the finity of time keeps getting in the way, I'm
afraid. Our developer's conference (Ubuntu Developer Summit) is coming
up in three weeks, and by then I hope to have a bit of an idea as to
whether I'll be able to find the time to do it for this relaese
cycle.
The work is going on without you, actually. There's a "debian"
branch
in the devel branch where folks
already have things going forward.

I've picked it up several times over the last year or so, but have never
reached anything that is even remotely releasable. The main problem is
the vastly different interpretations of FHS in Debian and Ubuntu
compared to the Cobbler developers' ditto.
Specific examples of what you see and would like to change would be
useful here. We've talked
about having more configurable paths in settings before, which is not a
stretch or really even that
complicated of a patch.
