To be added to that list in the yet-to-be-named rediculously small image as well as linaro-server.
Linaro-server hopefully we'll see added to the daily snapshots fairly soon as I have the seed etc already put together for it. pico or whatever it will be called is probably a bit further off.
But getting back to your question, I don't think we should produce prebuilt images for all derivations. I would pick the most popular image and couple of the most popular board types as a start. If lots of people download and there's clammering for more, than hopefully would be easy enough to adjust.
That's my 2c.

Hi,
During LDS we agreed to provide prebuilt Linaro images at our milestones[1], for users who can't/won't run linaro-media-create. One thing we forgot to discuss, though, is if it's worth doing so for all image types or just for the LEB(s).
Our downloads page (http://www.linaro.org/downloads/) has 4 different image types, but the email for weekly testing, for example, lists only UbuntuDesktop as official and the others as community images. More importantly, though, I'm not sure the people who just want to try Linaro quickly will be interested in anything other than UbuntuDesktop at this point, so we might as well avoid the extra work to provide images that are unlikely to be of any use.
Can anybody think of other reasons why we should provide images of all types?
