Tim,
  LiveOIO is a Knoppix 3.3 2004/02/16-based CD available from
    http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=9295
  Zope, Plone-2.0-Final, PostgreSQL, OIO, Zwiki, and several
Zope-CMF/Plone Collector products are already included. I am sure you too
can learn to produce LiveTORCH from LiveOIO in a few hours. Alternatively,
if you like me to do it for you, I estimate that it will take 2-hours of
my time.

A time may come when at least one TORCH user become sufficiently upset -
and take action to package TORCH for Debian. :-)

Personally, I just have not had time to learn how to build Debian
packages. (It is probably easier than I imagine.) Once I do, I will
package OIO and all dependent packages that currently do not have Debian
package available!

Best regard,

Andrew
