(--and easy -- e.g., auto-fixing of the PATH . . .)

I agree whole-heartedly that this is the core of what we're trying to  
do.

So Darwinports, Fink, and (dare I say it) even ActiveState are really  
beside the point. All worth a mention, somewhere in something pointed  
to from the main page, but clearly off the trail we're trying to make  
clear.
