I have a perl script that can be used to build disk images, which you
can get at:
<http://www.refnum.com/products/dmgutil/>
I normally invoke this from within a more general release script, that
uses dmgutil with some parameters and a set of image/icon files to build
the dmg.
I find it easier to have things like icons or the background image
checked in as independent files, rather than having them incorporated
into a template where they're not so easy to update.
