I've been on this list for years (jdogalt).  Believe me, I've got my own litany 
of issues.

But from where I'm standing, it does look like you threw up 6 patches without 
much obvious design discussion beforehand, and you are getting too upset too 
quickly.

Since the livecd-creator bits are what is used to build the official fedora 
releases, I do think there should be a fair amount of resistence to changes.

Can you explain this a bit more?  I am not a seasoned python programmer, but 
that sounds like a _really_ strange issue to me???
