How do you create your .dsl files?  I would like to add applications from the internet or my Mandrake installation into dsl.

Just create a .tar.gz, but make sure that it would be suitable if extracted to / - i.e., you'll need to create usr/bin directories and so on. You can also update the menu and add a desktop icon - check out other .dsl files to find out how, they're just .tar.gz files renamed.
