==**Part 1: Making the Puppy**==
**Step 1**
Create a bootstrap development environment

**Step 2**
Perfect the build system

**Step 3**
Compile Packages
**Goals**
* Compile from scratch for maximum speed and performance
* Create a new build system that supports multiple platforms, with a user friendly package manager, and a well stocked repository
**Potential Features:**
* Flash -lite
* Replace Rox with ""PcmanFM""
* ""CompCache"" compressed RAM
* [[http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=493294#493294 This sort of 'instant SFS' approach]]
==**Part 2: Testing the Puppy and cutting out the fat**==
* Should work out of the box, with quick links to get started
* Should try to be under 100 MB, possibly with a "fatted" version that is slightly larger
* A list of programs and sizes should be made to show where the fat can be cut
* Should be amazingly fast with very few background processes
* Should boot to a desktop as fast as possible, possibly backgrounding some loading scripts

for dialog and other messaging - Puppy Fun
Deletions:
I have used the name P6
and focused on the idea of 'Puppy from Scratch'
because 3 of our developers are interested in this approach
We can start from a bootstrapping ISO
As far as I can tell the candidates are [[http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=306792#306792 Ttuuxxxs 214x]]
[[Puppy44 Technosaurus 4.4 beta]]
and a [[http://bkhome.org/blog/ woof built Quirky or Wary]]
They seem the most likely to be a practical agreed basis
That is where we have to start from
an agreed basis
I feel Wary (to be released aprox. today) would be a good choice
This is where the new ISO is compiled/bootstrapped from,
so a working devx is required
I have used the original Puppy goals
