Hi Jorge,

 What you describe is indeed a new distribution in the sense that you
are modifying the original by adding applications, drivers, etc. I
think in these cases where the amount of modifications is small,
people should just ask Haiku Inc. permission to make an authorized
custom build, which Haiku Inc. will evaluate case by case. If it is
the original distribution repackaged as a CD with some additional
applications, it will be fairly simple to decide. But whether it is a
CD or not, it doesn't change the fact that it is a new distribution.
