I had a short look at it. besides that is something completely diffrent
by building a live system out of a 'normal' system than specifically
from a debian system as we do it, those linux-live scripts do:

  * support things we likely do not need (e.g. ability to boot it from
    dos or windows environments).

  * support things we don't want (e.g. those 'module images'; we do just
    install aditional debs in the running system as we expect it to do
    with every debian system).

  * use a diffrent approach without compression (no squashfs)

for the remaining rest, they are pretty similar to our own scripts,
except that we separeted them a bit better; that means that except from
the splash screen (which sources of it are included in the live-package
tarball), everything else is non-binary stuff. linux-live scripts does
ship syslinux, memtester etc. directly as binary without mentioning it
or its licenses, but that is just a detail and not important when just
looking at the concept.
