I for one would like to have the repackaged firmware back. Currently everbody intestested in root/market/google apps needs to go to the trouble to root and reinstall all stuff on each release.

It would be good to do this in a more or less community-maintainable way so people can update it once pocketbook releases an update. It was a waste that first Coredump-EE repackages everything and now you have to reinvent the wheel again.

So if you would like to release an improved firmware, please consider using some content management system to put scripts that build an installer image.
The good thing about such endeavour is that it also gives people the power to customize a bit more (disable/enable some optimizations).

Failing that, at least documentation would be great.

I hope I will also be able to contribute some stuff in this case.
