I've been working on fixing up AIF. I currently have basic support for
syslinux and grub-bios working, part of my aim is getting enough of an
understanding of AIF's current codebase to either clean it up well, or
pull out the good parts into a mature "third system".

My main personal interest concerns unattended installs. I am currently
using AIF successfully with the latest iso releases... there is a lot of
work that needs done on it though.
