Intro
The regular image builds are intended to aid those interested in ALT Linux Sisyphus and the current state of Linux desktop environments (at least as packaged there).
These are not the fully fledged properly tailored distributions but rather targeted technology demos that can happen to be useful either (the release manager's current laptop is installed using one of those -- did I mention these are installable LiveCDs?).
Please note that regular images are built using the unstable development repository (think debian testing) so if you want to install ALT Linux really do consider the official distributions which are built and updated using stable branches.
Flavours
There are multiple sets of DE/architecture specific builds; note that the manually verified ones are linked from tested directory while current contains automatically updated symlinks.
If you encounter any problems with a current image it might make sense to look whether the "a bit more official" tested one behaves better (thank you for still dropping us a note that the latest isn't greatest in your particular case).

Discussion
Please subscribe to our mailing list to discuss anything related to these images. The bugs (unless already known) should be filed against specific products, namely Regular (for image bugs) and Sisyphus (for package bugs).
Tech note
The technology behind these images is aimed at making derivatives easy while requiring the very minimal specification of the difference added.
