P.S: Good feedback. I agree with getting new distro CDs every so often and i am willing to do it (fast net connection helps) every so often (so expect Manudrake 9.2.2 etc...). i just need a bit of help setting it all up (e.g. signing packages)... which packages to ad etc...
P.P.S: I am thinking of adding PLF's dvd packages, what do you think??

Righto, the isos are created and I'm just about to test them. If I cannot find any problems, I'll bittorrent them on Monday under the name of Manudrake-9.2.1 (I'm fairly sure i cannot use the name Mandrake and 9.2.1 is better than 9.2SP1 (in my opinion)).
Also, since I'm a bit strapped for cash this month, I'm planning to sell these on CDs in the UK for people with slower connections (kinda like cheapbytes) - probably for �5 for 4 CDs including shipping (will get back on Monday). Anyone interested???

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.
