+# NOTES
+# we initially leveraged the first similar packaging initially made by Baris Metin
+# as of sface-0.1-9 we have bootstrapped our own skeleton images, 
+#   i.e. you can use vn as a skeleton for vn+1
+# about that, the way the background image gets (or not) found 
+#   on the final system is as follows 
+#   before compressing the image, you should open the image through the finder
+#   and tweak it, as described in http://el-tramo.be/guides/fancy-dmg
+#   that's the raison d'être for the -i option
+# basically: open two finder windows, one on the .backgrounf dir (use cmd-shift G)
+#   and one on the image itself; then using Finder->view->show view options
+#   drag the background image as appropriate
+# the important point being that the filename for the background must 
+#   exist - and so be the same - on the target system.
+# that's why the image 'volname' is constant across versions
+
 # the place to search for the  skeleton
