2 liveCDs:

  - GNOME 700M i586 - english only - Nonfree
  - KDE   700M i586 - english only - Nonfree

These are mainly targetted for distribution during events or for Newspapers

4 liveDVDs:

  - GNOME DVD i586   - all locales - Nonfree
  - GNOME DVD x86_64 - all locales - Nonfree
  - KDE   DVD i586   - all locales - Nonfree
  - KDE   DVD x86_64 - all locales - Nonfree

Not happy with this solution.
DVDs / the full set of packages is so *not* needed.


Actally the DVD part is because we go over 700M...
(so no "CD" format anymore)

It does not mean we will make 4G liveDVD
(wich might be ~16G installed size)

Downoad 4GB just to have 3GB obsoleted in a few months. :-((

Just create USB-editions of the english only media with additional languages.

So what fits into 700MB en-US only, will fit into <1GB for all languages.


Current liveDVD images are around 1G with all languages,
and that is somewhat matching what we will ship ...
but final size depends on package selection...

As was written numerous times: Most people don't burn actual CDs
anymore, but rather put the image onto usb-sticks.

Actually people do both...
