Andrew and All...
I think a DVD version would be nice, at least for those wanting "it
all" on one disc, but I don't think it would make a very good
economical media version to sell or give away as a distro especially
when the cost of DVD's are at least four times that of CDR's and I
would venture to guess that quite a few people don't have DVD burners
even though the cost of those are dropping and I would think this
would lead to fewer copies being made.
What I might suggest is a DVD version for those who distribute and or
sell OO.o as a "Master" disc to pick and choose separate
distributions, languages, etc. from. As for myself I think the
Windows distribution is by far the most popular and would be well
enough by its self. One argument for this would be; most popular
Linux distros all include OO.o anyway.
But... so Alex... how many versions do you think you would be willing
to create? ;)

Rather than try to squeeze all versions onto a DVD, why not
keep a copy of The Solaris and Mac install on a single iso,
and put the Windows and Linux together on another?
I'd suppport that.
At the moment, we distribute a single CD with both Windows
and Linux installs, English and Estonian languages.
So far, no requests for Solaris or Mac versions.
As I understand, for 2.0 there won't be any seperate localized
versions, but all supported languages will be included in one
installer?
DVD is not very popular here, too - we also sell different Linux
distro discs and the CD versions are much more popular than
DVDs. I guess part of the reason is that people don't quite trust
DVD installs yet...
