As far as Exherbo is concerned, we are in favour of more modularity. Of 
course, it should be thought through *before* you do it and, once decided, be 
pushed through in *one* major step, not as the current git migration (which 
you should finally and, if need be, forcefully push through, too) in "baby 
steps".

Yes, there will be some more effort on our, the packagers' side, but once 
we've adopted to a new scheme, it shouldn't really be any more effort compared 
to our current workflow. After all, we all have tools to help with such 
things.

Best regards, Wulf
