&gt;<i> Then it is too much to be stored in a cheap DVD.
</I>&gt;<i> IMO, when the size of a branch reaches such a size, an updated release
</I>&gt;<i> should be issued. Remember that a lot of people have a slow link to
</I>&gt;<i> internet. Mandriva did such updated releases which all work better than
</I>&gt;<i> the original, improving the confidence in the distro.
</I>&gt;<i> Today, a woman who has installed Mageia alone and for the first time, said
</I>&gt;<i> me that update is so much long that she thought the distro was broken.
</I>[...]

If we were to use the updates directly when installing (ie: not install first 
then update, but use updated packages at install time), we could even say, 
have an &quot;Update CD/DVD&quot;, which just contains the packages in question and use 
that instead of eg: mirrors...

This would effectively solve the problem even when not rereleasing mageia. It's 
true that Mandriva did .0 and .1 but they also had yearly release and not 
9months...
