Yes, but I don't have access to the iso image build environment
anymore since I have left MandrakeSoft. I can only explain you guys
how to build the naat rpm packages from the CVS. You won't be able to
build the iso image though ... You could install these rpm packages on
top of a Mandrake Linux 10.0 but some of the fixed rpms avaiable on
the iso image  will not be available unless they have been updated in
the main Mandrake Linux 10.0 wich I really doubt.
