It was the next 'obvious step up' from 700MB, and at the time was comfortable enough for everything we really needed. Stuff happened. Desktop team might be able to rejig things early in F20 cycle somehow, or we might have to go up in size again. Going too big does have consequences: a, say, 2GB download is pretty slow for some people, some people do still have nasty caps, and at some point you start getting people saying 'why does it have to be so big? What's all the bloat?' If all the lives start getting bigger, we may also not be able to manage the four-desktop-spin live DVD any more.
