If packages were properly distributed among the CD's, one didn't need to download all images. I admit I am a bit biased since I use XEmacs regularly. I you list I see many java-related packages. Why not bundle them into a separate CD? Another option would be to retain 4 images and create additional images with extras. -- Gérard Milmeister Langackerstrasse 49 CH-8057 Zürich
