Nope, but you're welcome to build one - I guess the tools are all there.

The apt-sources used is
 http://ftp.skolelinux.no/debian sarge main contrib non-free
 http://ftp.skolelinux.no/skolelinux sarge local

Good question - what makes a CD official in a volunteer project ?
No - I'm not beeing paid to do this.

But this is the autobuilt image, created automaticly whenever something
is changed, I have just taken one build - tested it somewhat and said
that this kind of works.

Well, seem like you're the only one (besides me) that asks this
questions. Maybe you/we should stop asking them ?

Well , it seldoms feels that way

Maybe, if you spend a bit more time maintaining your packages (lessdisks
is one of them), and a bit less time playing postmaster on lists were
you are not such, maybe we could use the official debian packages. but
hey - I guess it's to late to get lessdisks 0.6.something into sarge
now, lets hope you wake up for etch
