The decision to drop the CD-sized images was taken earlier; we had already consolidated the desktop CD and the DVD into a single 800MB hybrid ISO image, before the discussion of alternate CDs came up. However, though the finer details were wrong, the fundamental argument is the same: including both the alternate installer and ubiquity on a single image would double the size of the image and effectively offer us no savings in terms of maintenance and QA. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
