I'd suggest for livecds:
2 liveCDs:
- 1 GNOME 700M i586 - english only - for FOSDEM & co
- 1 KDE 700M i586 - english only - for FOSDEM & co
4 liveDVDs:
- 1 GNOME DVD i586 - all locales-*
- 1 GNOME DVD x86_64 - all locales-*
- 1 KDE DVD i586 - all locales-*
- 1 KDE DVD x86_64 - all locales-*
+1
but I would suggest that all those guys get a network install option. In
particular the live CDs, in that case they could replace the boot.iso.
It is true that it takes 10x times to download a full CD compared to
boot.iso, but that's still tractable?
Question...
do we need to provide XFCE (or LXDE) for those that does not like
the GNOME/KDE bloat (and "phone/pad" gui) ?
I belong to those guys, and I would say NO. :)
Just because, if you don't like KDE, you won't like LXDE for aesthetic
reasons, and XFCE is practical but neither nice in my opinion. However,
if would not have a size issue, I'll say YES only if we include all the
small desktop environments; because that's a great stuff about Mageia
that we have almost all of them.
Cheers,
Chris.
