ProdNG, tell us more...
It's self hosting and entirely rebuilt from source.
All packages are stripped of unnecessary dependencies and libraries (optional xml2 support, seLinux library, libacl2, etc..)
Less is more: end distribution around 150MB/150 packages (without our custom bits). How many packages in your server image?
Smaller is quicker to sync, re-install, and fsck.
No complicated upstart, dbus, plymouth.
Newer packages are not always better. Sometimes old is good (unfortunately OSS also suffers from feature creep, xml2 for rpm?)
It's hermetic: we create a ProdNG chroot on the fly and install build tools each time you build a new package.
