Hi, > I was wondering about something. I've downloaded every new distribution off > of the Live CD.

Just for the record, Pirut and Pup died. We now use PackageKit. > So, you know that Desktop icon you click on to write the contents of the Live > CD to your hard drive? How about if we come up with several of those? Say, > click here to write the two-gig Fedora Office package to your desktop. Or the > three-gig Fedora Arts Package? Or Multimedia? And so on.... > > These packages would have all the core stuff everybody wants, but then be > top-heavy with speciality stuff, that would appeal to a certain professions > or lively-hoods. I think that's why we have several spins, one for Gnome, one for KDE, one for astronomy people, one for artists, one for geeks in electronics, etc... > This would also mean we would not need all the DVD's, just Live CDs for > everybody, and people could get most of the bulk they want via downloads > after they have the core packages in place. Please, let me my DVD. Let me have the joy to select each and every package for hours every 6 months (knowing perfectly that yum will add packages I unchecked for dependencies :) ---------- Mathieu Bridon (bochecha) French Fedora Ambassador ---------- "They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety." ~Benjamin Franklin
