So I disagree about k3b and kde-partitionmanager being part of the necessary
minimum. K3b is useless on a machine with no CD/DVD burner (e.g. a netbook
or a tablet). kde-partitionmanager is entirely useless for most users. That
kind of packages belongs into "options" (subgroups). It may or may not make
sense to enable those options by default.

I have to disagree on K3B. Writing a CD/DVD is a basic function and should be supported out of the box. It was a welcome addition when users could burn CDs on Windows without requiring any additional software. We're not aiming to include only those packages that are applicable on all possible hardware platforms, are we? In that case, things like bluetooth support should be left out since most desktops don't have them. I mean, why the unfair advantage for netbooks?

Syam
