i suppose I have no real horse in this race, but I'll toss in here. It seems a bit odd to me to impose any arbitrary number on ourselves for release. Rather, we should look at what we feel is important to ship, test and support, and then see if it's within our intended media targets. If we support installing in 30 different languages, let's ship those language packs. If we could put both i386 and amd64 on the image why wouldn't we? If we can support EFI and bios booting on the same image, again, why wouldn't we? These are the types of questions I would be asking. People may agree or disagree with those desires, but I don't think they should be driven by space. Think about and agree on what we want to ship, and then look at what options we have to put that onto common media.
On a side note, we need definitely need to rename iso testing now (these aren't isos!)-- folks already wanted to call it release testing, image testing or something else.. Probably worth thinking about. Additionally, the wonderfully named cdimage.ubuntu.com domain should be changed :-) Nicholas On 06/05/2012 12:09 AM, Jason Warner wrote: > > > On Tue, Jun 5, 2012 at 1:26 PM, Martin Pitt <[email protected] > <mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: > > > I'm personally fine with either 800MB or 750MiB (786MB) as a > target for this > > cycle, I just want to make sure we understand our trajectory for > future > > releases and that the limit in quantal makes sense as a point on > that > > trajectory. > > Right, same here.
