If you're already a Debian developer, you should upload as documented
in the Developer's Reference (chapters 7 8).

I am making a Debian Hurd CD for my personal use from ftp.debian.org. I
am downloading the individual pckages from the different directories like base,
devel etc. I would like to know how I can make an apt-able CD ROM. What is
