Comment:

 In the repo user/chiiph/thandy-bootstrap.git is the first commit for this
 bootstrapper.
 It still lacks a couple of minor things, but it's functional.

 To make it useful, you need to create a file called updater.conf with the
 following:

 {{{
 [General]
 PythonPath=path/to/thandy/lib/
 ThpInstallRoot=path/to/thproot/
 ThpDbRoot=path/to/thpdb/
 PythonBinary=path/to/python
 ThandyLocation=path/to/thandy/
 Bundles=/bundleinfo/thp-bundle1/,/bundleinfo/thp-bundle2/
 }}}

 This file should live in a directory that is passed with the --datadir
 switch to the app.

 The idea is to distribute this app with:

 {{{
 ...
 Bundles=/bundleinfo/vidalia/,/bundleinfo/firefox/,/bundleinfo/torbutton/,
 etc
 }}}

 Along with a copy of repo snapshot, and the user will install the latest
 of everything.

 I'll upload some screenshots for the lazy that don't want to build&run
 this :)

 Here are some questions to Nick:
 - Do you want to be the owner of the official thandy-bootstrap repo?
 - Do you want to review its code? Or should I treat this as a Vidalia-like
 app when it comes to review?
