Good Morning or Afternoon Peppermint Community,

After debating over it with myself for the last two months, I have decided to publish the live-build trees for both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Peppermint OS Classic. It gives both transparency as to how they were made, and gives the community the choice to carry it on themselves if they so choose, which is something they did not have when Mark Greaves died and took the secrets of Peppermint 10 with him. Seeing as I am not involved in Peppermint's development anymore, and highly unlikely to keep developing Classic myself, I feel that making these public, for the all the aforementioned reasons, is the right thing to do.

Linked below, you will find two tarballs with the live-build trees for Classic. These are forked from the builders for Spiral Linux. Each one can be built by running "sudo ./Debian64.sh -i" or "sudo ./Debian32.sh -i", respectively. And to anyone who decides to take this up themselves or use it as a base for something new: Good Luck, and happy Pepperminting...

Respectfully,
