Well, I think you've nicely demonstrated the reason why I think there 
should be a central machinery; perhaps as a stanard open-source project, 
i.e reviewed, contributed to, and shared by everybody.

The "everybody has his home-brew hacked-up script" model is just 
unnecessary duplication of work a brings potential for unnecessary bugs.

For example, please correct me if I am wrong, but I believe that if I send 
you a patch that would have authorship

	Jiri Kosina <jkosina`rm -rf .`@suse.com>

and you wouldn't notice prior to applying it using the above do.sh, I 
think your precious tree is gone.

This would be caught immediately if it's properly maintained "project".

Thanks,
