For those unaware, the Heretix home page is at www.h-e-r-e-t-i-x.org

It is moving along, though the lead maintainer is currently busy doing
some construction projects. It is a good proof of how well ruby scales
to different domains. Heretix does have the ability to build live cds
also... The main problem is that it is a long shot from being Debian
compatible so I don't see it directly helping the Zen Linux project as
is.
