Also note that it is significant work to make changes to create a new live 
image. I could probably churn one out come the final release, but wouldn't be 
able to make any promises as to how well it works.

I personally have a high understanding of the image building process, both 
DVD/CD image building, and live filesystem building, so could certainly set up 
something where a live DVD is built periodically, and made available via 
torrent/uploaded to my webspace. However I would only investigate this if there 
was significant demand for users wanting a live DVD.

There would also likely be work needed to make ubiquity work properly with 
installing UbuntuStudio from the live DVD image, particularly relating to 
choosing the package sets users want installed.
