Not really.  I have only done some experiments with pkgbase cluster 
builds.  No machine in the cluster is running pkgbase.  Building images 
is only part of the problem.  We have a lot of other moving parts 
(install, upgrade, phonehome, sundry automation).  It'll be several 
months at least.

I'd love to make this a priority but, unless someone starts funding 
clusteradm time, it'll be several months at least.  All our volunteer 
bandwidth goes up in firefighting and keeping the infrastructure 
running.
