Choosing A Webhost:
A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to provide their own website accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center. Web hosts can also provide data center space and connectivity to the Internet for servers they do not own to be located in their data center, called colocation. more...

What's the idea behind the 'flavor' configuration keyword in pungi
(using lattest tip). On inspecition, It seems to be appended to the
version number and used to create directory paths. I guess I just want
to know the "why" behind it :), or more like, the domain equivalence...
basically... what the heck is a flavor :)

With Fedora 7, we're introducing a targetted spin idea, that is a compose of the packages for a particular target, like Desktop. In order to signify what target a given spin is for, I introduced the flavor argument, which as you noted, will append the flavor to the path. This way you can have the same topdir but with many different flavors. It is purely optional though, if no flavor is specified, it will not be used.
ahh... i c. thanks for the explanation... makes perfect sense.

btw, if flavor is not specified, a lot of portions break, i'll investigate better and send
a patch.
