If you want to let somebody else make the cd, then why don't you also let
him/her make the iso9660 image? I don't know about the debian-cd package,

Try this:

Send an e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and put the word
"subscribe" (and nothing more) in the body of the message. The subject is
not important. If you keep having trouble, send an e-mail to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] (this is a real person who can help you).
