IMHO we need to do something to get vendors to default to selling the CDs

just a waste of plastic for most users.
Maybe we need a debian-vendor-announce list similar to

So how about keeping around a fixed amount of CD images per arch and
dropping the rest?
It's too early to not have all the distribution in CDs. The main

I have been told (by Steve Langasek) that the netinst image sizes are
whatever it takes to do net install, to be used on a regular CD but kept as
