+Well, architecture is the right term. A model would be something even
+more specific (a specific computer or device) and that is not so far
+fetched as to imagine we may have builds for specific devices some day
+soon (at least I hope so). And we would use the name &quot;model&quot; here.
+
+&gt;<i> So, could we maybe make architecture into model; flavour into style;

+</I>&gt;<i> mageia-1-live-kde-europa-cd-beta1-i586.iso
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> name, version, type, style, region, media, status, model...?
+</I>
+The type is optional here.
+
+The LiveCD is an exception so far: the region is only relevant in the
+Live CD context, because we can't fit all locales in a single CD
+storage (700MB): so we have to decide either to build a single Live CD
+with a limited range of languages, either to build several Live CD,
+one for each languages set (or to have a LiveDVD, but this would
+defeat the small download size goal then).
+
+For other ISOs, we have DVDs (32bit, 64bit), CD (dual arch, netinstall
+- 32bit &amp; 64 too). As wobo told, we may have others too because we'll
+decide to release different objects, depending on survey
+understandings and goals.
+
+&gt;<i> This is a *lot* of information for a newbie to parse.
+</I>
+Even too much. And partly because of that, the download page will have
+the task to preselect the ISOs to download to the most likely ones to
+be used by the visitor, for instance:
+ - first we will mostly rely on the browser language prefs (for the
+locale you're likely to search for) and remote IP address (for the
+mirror to preselect),
+ - for later releases, we can envision some data analytics on
+downloads and usage stats to refine.
