Here's everything new in the F19 DVD, sorted by size. I've dropped
java-1.8.0-openjdk in the kickstart already, but that won't be enough.

Bill,

Is there any particular reason to pull

@perl-web or
@python-web
(and likewise @rubyonrails, and @php)
to the DVD?
That was introduced in the commit [1].

I don't disagree in having those groups, but pulling them onto the DVD
will probably pull a huge bunch of deps in.

Am I just wrong here?

It depends what should dvd offer. I guess we want there everything cool, so new users don't have to install additional packages outside of dvd. Otherwise we could offer only minimal installation.
