More free space in the DVD? Yes, +some applications could be added, but as it is impossible to include +all the applications in a DVD, a lot of them will still be left out. + +A *minor* problem is that some people use several languages, not for +the system, but for some applications like LibreOffice, Thunderbird, +etc. Personally I use Spanish, English and French. If there was a +single language in the ISO, users would have to go and download the +other languages.
