I probably can assist in building the Image but I have no DVD-Writer
(only a CD-Writer) so actually writing specimen for testing purposes
would have been done by someone else. CeBIT is too close, but LinuxTag
would be manageable.

As we're talking about a DVD - would it be (technically) possible to
produce sort of a multi-architectural DVD? One that could be used on a
Mac as well as on a ix86, IA64 or SPARC? I don't know much about the
technical details but I think this could be a really interesting Ad ;)
Knoppix will be given away for sure by Heise and/or some others as well
as probably will be done by RedHat and SuSE with their products too.

In offering something similar covering different architectures than
ix86, the Debian project could demonstrate (one of) its true advantages
- - its availability for several platforms and architectures.

Best Regards, Daniel
