This is a fantastic idea, I wish somebody had done this a long time
ago.  What would be nice is that every so often, a snapshot of the
distro with the latest bug fixes be released; for use when you are
installing new and you don't want to bother with a fourth download cd or
you don't have an internet connection handy.  In my opinion this is a
real market gap and it's something I'd be willing to pay for.

Right now 9.1 has a huge amount of updates that would better be
integrated into a new set of installation cd's, instead of a tag-along
cd as I'm doing it now.

The only suggestion I have is that before you master them you do all
your Gpg checks on the packages and make sure all the rpm's pass.
