I think (if I recall correctly) we were taking the "what would help designers - so also people on the design team or those who want to get involved" approach. Admittedly, that's a pretty broad one and I think we mentioned that having sample content and introductions either somewhere on the spin or on a bookmarked page would be good. >> It's already based on yesterday's Rawhide, even though it still calls >> itself Generic 12 - which means it might very well break.

For example OpenOffice Impress is a *major* space consumer. Basically, it means that we're using about 150 MB for a single application. Excluding that one would bring us down to 750 MB, which isn't too far from CD-size. However, since we're just starting to talk about it, I guess we'll just see what comes close. In the end, it might well be a 2 GB target - I don't know, yet. >> Actually, I was trying to upload it somewhere quickly and ended up using >> Wuala.

Finally, I've thrown something in the wiki - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Design_Suite#Packages has all the details. I didn't include a real rationale for now, so feel free to rant! ;) Aside from that, the page looks really cool (thanks Mel!) - if anybody has package suggestions or further ideas, just add them there.
