That allows you to customize the contents to suit your target market. We don't actually supply a CD, however we do have a standard ISO image available for download. It may usually be found on your favourite OpenOffice.org mirror under the </contrib/iso/en> directory. Note though that not all mirror sites carry the <contrib> directory. The ISO is updated when new releases occur, and will usually be available on the mirror network within a week. I normally announce the new ISO on this (and several other) lists. Since the 2.0 release will use native installers, I won't be able to use my usual method of reducing the size, so there will end up being either 2 CD images or a single DVD image, possibly both (depending on disk space on the mirrors). Note to distributors generally - your thoughts on which way to go would be appreciated. > > Thanks > > Jarrod Coombes -- Alex Fisher Co-Lead, CD-ROM Project OpenOffice.org Marketing Community Contact Australia/New Zealand http://distribution.openoffice.org/cdrom/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
