Package installation templates?

[Mark Burgess <mark@iu.hioslo.no>]

A good topic for the debain FAQ would be the answer to the following
question. Perhaps someone would be kind enough to mail me their answer
to this also.

I want to create a standard list of packages which I will then install
on 50 machines  without having to go into dselect and choose them
by hand.  i.e. I want to to make a bunch of clones from the the sources.

I need a template list for the packages in my set-up.

How can I do this? Is is obvious?

Thanks for any help,
