Making panniers from ALICE bags

I am a loooong way from home and find myself with 2 ALCE bags and an Arkel attachment system to use on the 2 ALICE bags. Does anyone have any experience with making such bags? What would you use for stiffening the back? Remember I am not in North America and Europe and am doing some travelling.

I did read Paul W.'s comments re making panniers from WW II canvas bags, so have some ideas.

BUT, I'd like some actual experiences. Thanks :-)
