Hamish, good suggestions.
I've only been distributing VMs so far, because the I haven't completed
the full build process through to creating an ISO yet. (I've been
running out of memory on the VMs and hard disks I've been working with.)
Alex has volunteered to take over the build from the next release and
hopefully will be able to take the release further than me.

Hi,
it seems to me that it would be much simpler to just ship one ISO,
folks who want to install to a VM can do that via the install
option on the live CD after mounting it in a new VM of their
creation, folks who want to install to a USB stick can do the
same (or after burning the DVD to a physical DVD).
3.2gb target size for the compressed casper filesystem, with 1gb
left over in the root of the DVD for ms-windows and mac osx
installers.
3 versions of the same thing seems wasteful to me. Am I missing
something? is there a reason for it to be any more complicated?
regards,
Hamish
