Reply from the knoppix list below.

Since Knoppix is a mix of stable and testing (and unstable?), apparently it's 
not a simple apt-get.  Also, I only have a dial-up connection so uploading an 
ISO will probably take three to four days.

I don't think I can have something by this Friday, sorry.  But I will be happy 
to post the ISO (but I'll probably have to mail a CD to someone).

Does anyone have any opinions on whether it is worth waiting for the unstable 
debs, which are compiled with gcc3.2?  Does this really make a big deal?

Yes, basicly that. However, Knoppix uses a mix of testing and unstable and
stable( ? ), and the 3.1 packages released for debian are for woody only.
They will not install smoothly, but you may be able to get them going. The
debs for unstable will be out reasonable soon, with a gcc3.2 compiled X, qt,
and kde 3.1.

b.t.w. Klaus, there are lots more programs for kde that weren't there before.
If I make a remaster that is _Just_ kde 3.1 + kde3.1 apps, I get to 300M
total, so you'll have to make some tough decisions on what stays and what
goes :)
These are the debs I use,
http://ktown.kde.org/~nolden/kde/dists/woody/main/binary-i386/ which have
lots of extra programs, and aegypten stuff as well.
