There is work being done for CivicSpace and Bryght to create a very
nice Drupal installer. If you download and install CivicSpace, you can
give ours a try -- but there does need to be some work done to unify
the work that Adrian is doing with the work that we're doing.

In any case, it would be great for you take a look at these two
systems and explore overlaps and opportunities for generalizing their
design/implementations.
