Here are six different partial solutions to the mgmt-tools question:

* LATU's updater, and Martin's makefile system.
* [[User:Mstone/Commentaries/Mass olpc-update|mass olpc-update]] and [[Software updater]].

Perhaps we could write a good list of requirements after spending a few minutes considering each of these examples?
