At about this time last year an enterprising group released the

this 5.2GB iso image onto a bootable 8GB thumb drive. That and a Helix3
forensic thumb drive were "must haves" in my toolkit.
The Live-multi effort seems to have gone silent. There was no Fedora 15
edition. Has their generation script been published anywhere so I can
roll my own Fedora-16-Live-multi.iso image?

You can make your own multi-fedora or even a multi-distro USB quite
easily. Just make a different directory for each distro, and then
create or edit a menu file for booting a distro and add the live_dir
and root=live:LABEL kernel parameters.
Here's an excerpt from my multi-distro syslinux.cfg:
label f15live
menu label ^Fedora 15 32bits Live
kernel /fedora/isolinux/vmlinuz0
append initrd=/fedora/isolinux/initrd0.img root=live:LABEL=MULTIBOOT
live_dir=/fedora/LiveOS rootfstype=auto ro liveimg quiet rhgb
rd_NO_LUKS rd_NO_MD rd_NO_DM
