I would agree with Simon, it is intimidating with all the distros. Since there are two streams, I like the ideal of a debian and a rh, be it ubuntu and rh or suse. I also like the idea of having a server choice. That give use 4 distros to worry about. Most people will be interested in the desktop side (just because of the target audience).
As an option, the ability to burn on demand would be nice if we have the ability and a volunteer.
