Thanks for testing and reporting your results! I expect Shotwell will be
updated regularly before the Beta, we are not version frozen at this
point.

This is intentional; the primary live spins for F13 will no longer be
CD-sized, they will be capped at 1GB. This is to give a little extra
wiggle room to get apps like OO.o in. The rationale is that the large
majority of users will have a USB drive or DVD writer available.
