Hi Steve,

I’m asking from total ignorance, so forgive me if my question doesn’t make 
sense…

Is there a relatively simple way a normal Debian user (without special 
developer skills or access to special developer resources) can create a Debian 
Live CD/DVD/BD/USB-stick with their choice of packages?  The goal here would be 
for Sirish (and me too, for that matter) to be able to create our own Debian 
Live mate-desktop.  Generalizing a little bit: One could create a bootable Live 
USB-stick with a custom set of utilities (e.g. for network 
installation/testing/debugging).

Is that possible?

Thanks,
Rick
