True, but we loose access to /home/slitaz in the process; godane backed
packages & sources on a daily basis so he was able to recreate a
cooking environment - loosing it was essentially the cause of my
angryness, now I feel better; but we don't have backup for cooklogs. Few
days ago you asked for mirroring the packages on mirror.slitaz.org, but
actually we can't sync with it. So, back to the previous situation:
mirror on godane people account.

About the positive side: we can play in a system based on thoses
"not-so-experimental" packages... The tool itself is maybe
(less and less) experimental but the current cooking wok provide pretty
stable packages.

Sure I did, and I can do it again: thanks you all for theses amazing
piece of code & docs you released & release. That's free :)

Working ISO based on current wok, cooked using tazwok-experimental &
tazlito exists, I'm pretty sure that we can release RC or something like
that this week based on current experimental status. 

To resume the stuff we need, if possible:
* A copy of the cooklogs from /home/slitaz/experimental/log
* Possibility to send packages & iso to mirror.slitaz.org
* Please link /home/slitaz/chroot/var/www/vhosts/bb
to /var/www/vhosts/bb/experimental to make me able to make a php
buildbot interface reachable from internet at
http://bb.slitaz.org/experimental. I'm currently working on this
interface and will need help from a php expert to make it able to
support several repositories at a same time (not just cooking/stable;
the goal is open the possibility to add support for
undigest/backport/wok-tiny repositories easily; the list of $version
avaible is stored in a file).

About cronjob to cook packages: actually we are the cookbot, a bot
command will be added soon into tazwok-experimental to perform
automatically all maintaining tasks (get commits, cook commits &
missing, update repository, optionnaly update mirror).
