So, playing with the Ervius kitchen and improting the 28008 ROM files that DA_G kindly packaged up, you get just 3 categories or groups, XIP, OEM and SYS. What I'm wondering though is what's needed and not needed to get a functioning WinMo phone? I found if I mark all 3 categories or groups as enabled (True) then it will actually boot up and go through the screen configuration and launch Titanium. But are all those items in the SYS group really necessary? If I include a copy of Bing later, does that mean I can remove Livesearch? Can I remove Livesearch now or will it not boot up? What's really necessary and what's not?
So far, it seems like everything in the SYS is necessary as that's the only time I can get it too actually become a bootable ROM. Once I learn the process and get an idea of the process and how it works, then I will start playing with the Calkulin version of the kitchen. But I want to learn how to drive before I climb behind the seat of the Ferrari so-to-speak which is why I'm playing with just the ervius version for now.

You can't go wrong cooking (almost) all of the SYS files. You'll want to exclude SQM and autoupdate for sure (that's why there are 'dummy' versions instead).
Other than that, you can include and exclude once you get an idea of what the different packages do. Some are essential, some are not. Widgets, for instance, are not, nor is skymarket (marketplace) or skybox (myphone), or any of the mobile office components. But there's nothing wrong with cooking them in (I leave out Skybox since I usually cook an EXT'd version of the latest myphone cab), and you can always install other/newer versions of whatever's in the ROM without ill effects (other than internal memory use).
