<PRE>Donald Gimp is one of those packages that I think would be ok to remove
from the Live CD's, if something will replace it at least to some extent
such as Shotwell.
What's Hugin?

</I>
As for Inkscape I think that's a good idea to remove.
On 29/04/12, Sander Lepik:

</I>><i>
</I>
As for LibreOffice I think that should stay on the CD, because certain
users will want to use that on the CD. In fact recently someone from my
LUG tried out Mageia 1 Gnome and KDE, from Live CD's, and trying out
LibreOffice was part of the Mageia 1 review that was sent to the LUG
mailing list. I assume they tried LibreOffice from Live CD.
Here's a reason why I think LibreOffice should stay on the CD's of
Mageia for probably many releases to come:
<A HREF="http://blog.mageia.org/en/2010/11/14/mageia-supports-libreoffice/">http://blog.mageia.org/en/2010/11/14/mageia-supports-libreoffice/</A> Yes
since Mageia is giving LibreOffice full official support, and to do so,
it has to be on the Live CD's, in my opinion.
Calligra uses Qt so I guess that would mean the Gnome Live CD would
require Qt installed on it, to run it, so I guess as a result that's
out. Unless the KDE and Gnome versions start having some differences
when it comes to additional software.
There are apps that could be used together to replace LibreOffice for
many tasks, such as Abiword and Gnumeric, and so on.
