Hi, Crazy idea time. It would be nice if we had a LiveCD for Fosdem that showed all the cool stuff we have working now. On Saturday (Feb 25) we would like to have a little Show-And-Tell to give people the oppertunity to show off their favorite applications. What better way to show off then to be able to say: "and take this CD, it has everything on it ready to go!" :)
I was hoping that Fedora Core 5 would be out around Fosdem, but they extended their schedule by a couple of weeks and are now releasing just after Fosdem (March 15). Otherwise we could have nagged those Red Hatters that they should hand out those since Fedora Core 5 is based on GCC 4.1 (CVS-pre-release) it has most of the latest stuff already. Has someone experience with creating LiveCDs? (I don't, so maybe my idea of it being easy to create a LiveCD is terribly naive.) Can it be based on a Fedora Core 5 test release? (Fedora Core seems the most stable and includes Jonas) Or should we base it on the Debian packages (They have more things packaged like jamvm, kaffe, cacao, but don't have jonas yet and most things are based on the stable gcc 4.0.x release.) Does anybody know of a cheap way to create the CDs? Or do we have someone with a CD burner so we could burn them on the spot? Maybe that takes too long though. Cheers, Mark
