Could these programs be added to the build scripts, or would that be

Hi Martin,
Thanks for the notification.
While you're working on PNG optimisations in the build scripts, I have
something to ask you.
There has been discussion on the More LiveCD space optimisations
thread [1] of using AdvanceCOMP to further reduce the size of PNG
files (even after OptiPNG, PNG

30%, possibly do to squashfs doing some form of intra-file

Also could you explain a bit what you mean by optimizations? You can
of course, use a higher lossy compression on the png images, but that
lowers their quality, which I think is not a desirable tradeoff.
png does not do lossy
