I built a platform using the drush make command. Ran drush make on the command line and not inside the new feature alpha13. (I am experimented mind you) I created a quick site on hostmaster platform. It wasn't configured with anything. I migrated it over to my newly created platform from drush make. None of the modules that the platform provides are available to choose from. I guess this is because they are under the profiles directory. So this sort of leaves you out of luck if you start a site on one platform and what to shift to another. I am not sure this is something that should get fixed or addressed. But it was an unexpected result and those are never good.
Is my assessment correct? Do we need to address this? What are peoples thoughts.
