Sure. But then where should it be published? In /contribute under
"Relationship with upstream", here "upstream" being Tails? Anything better?

Then I'd still like to spend one hour to wrap these points with a bit

understanding what "Don't build your own ISO images" meant which is the
key concept here.

Ok.
