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.
