:) Love this project!
I'll check with Linux Format magazine to confirm deadline for ISOs and
documentation.
I expect posting ISOs by end of this week so they can do their
production work beginning next week would be best.
So yes, that's Dennis, locking the ISO quickly on Friday.

I totally agree--there are many good messages that come from producing
a multiboot DVD--and maybe it's something we do periodically in addition
to sep. Distros, or even as Glynn suggested tutorial and training
modules. Physical media is a beautiful thing once in a while to

How would it determine which bugs those fields can be exported for?
We can't do it for all bugs, since some contain source which cannot
be disclosed publically.
It's not an unsolvable problem. E.g. there could be a special field
accessible only from Sun, that the sponsor would set.
