I agree it is a strange move to desynchronise "main" or Mandrake/RPMS with the 3CD download edition. It would be better to remove some documentations from the download edition instead of the kernel-source. Now tutorials about rpmdrake will be more complex... At least, it is still possible to add "main" and "contrib" media, even if you leave the CDs media. Are there other packages that are in Mandrake/RPMS and that are not in the 3CD DE ? Are they all in the 3CD Powerpack edition ?OK, I answer to myself : the "main" repository in Cooker and 9.2 folders is 2460MB big. So it would need 4 CDs. to be entirely burnt.
But as you mentioned it, there will be a kernel update very soon, so the sources should be updated too.

I wonder what is the difference between "main" hdlist.cz and the 3CD editions. I will try to make a diff between the two file lists.
