  This looks like a great proof of concept with some software (especially a lightweight package manager) which I always wanted to see come to life and possibly use myself!

  I really like this concept, it goes to great lengths to be minimalism, not just a <well-know-linux-distro-here> remix. I think Linux on the desktop still needs a lot of iterations to be successful and these experiments can be a great sandbox for them. I hope to see more static linked distributions, but in the meantime there a few alternatives like: https://github.com/jelaas/bifrost-build https://github.com/jelaas/bifrost-build http://morpheus.2f30.org/ http://morpheus.2f30.org/ There is also a static binary retriever at http://javier.io/blog/en/2015/06/23/static-get.html http://javier.io/blog/en/2015/06/23/static-get.html In case you want even more static packages out of RLSD, I'd probably add the RLSD packages to it sometime soon.
