We should not make the install more complicated buy adding extra questions "do you want to install foo, bar and baz?" We should just move away from a CD where it makes sense, a spin targeted for slower / older hardware can be CD size limited, but that should not mean that we should live with the artificial CD limit forever. Also using a DVD does not necessary mean that we must fill a full DL disk, but it will allow us to move above the 700MB limit where it makes sense (adding stuff like OO.org or translations for the KDE spin etc.) But well I doubt that we will do this anytime soon, even though it makes a lot of sense IMHO. -- Fedora-desktop-list mailing list Fedora-desktop-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-desktop-list
