Setup was mentioned on Slashdot the other day. I downloaded it and took a gander at it. It is nice that it is GPL and uses GTK (which we use), libglade (which is like what I am trying to implement on the Workspace for dynamic GUI generation) and libxml (which we will be using). It is 2 MB (!) however, compared to Loci's 39 kB right now, and Setup seems to be aimed at creating a bootable image on CDs...Maybe good for a CD distribution of Loci? Cheers.
