I'd like to guage interest in a Boot CD distribution produced by NYPHP 
to hand out at conferences and other groups' meetings. On boot it would 
start a fairly loaded AMP rig and expose a number of nifty PHP 
applications on port 80.

By default, the CD would load configs and sample data into a ramdisk, 
but we would provide a control-panel interface to 
enable/disable/configure applications and hook them to remote data 
sources (or even mount remote filesystems via webdav). Instant mirror!

What PHP applications would you want to see on such a disc?

Has anyone created a custom Knoppix distro? FreeBSD also has a Live CD 
project...
