I am going to seriously push for targetting a 1GB usb stick for F13.
Continuing to squeeze ever-shrinking amounts of useful content onto a CD
is a dead-end. Localized spins and lang-packs could delay the
inevitable, but rpm seems unable to give us a working lang-pack
solution...

a 1gb usb stick seems not-unreasonable. Jumping to a DVD seems like a
larger leap, to me.

1GB USB sticks may hold enough content for a good user experience, but from a cost perspective DVDs, even if not full, may prove a better solution: we give away an important number of CDs at various events. Replacing those with USB sticks would cost a lot more but replacing them with DVDs will cost about the same.

So probably a good middle ground is to target the spin size-wise at 1GB sticks and distribute it on DVDs.
