&gt;<i> Hi there
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> So here is the discussion about what isos we should keep or have for
</I>&gt;<i> final release. We had several (many!) proposals on that topics and we
</I>&gt;<i> need to take some decisions.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Here are some prerequisites I can see for what I can read in comments
</I>&gt;<i> and review about Mageia on the web.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> - provide a full open source software version
</I>&gt;<i> - provide CD iso(s) so that it can be quick to download (people having
</I>&gt;<i> low band-width or paying depending how much they use it)
</I>&gt;<i> - provide live version(s)
</I>&gt;<i> - decrease isos number. QA is just a hell on the set we had for Mageia 2
</I>&gt;<i> - provide localization as large as possible
</I>&gt;<i> - provide isos including major drivers including proprietary one to make
</I>&gt;<i> it easier to install and configure
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>
Here is my proposal:
2 DVDs (32 and 64 bit)
2 LiveCDs KDE (32/64 bit)
2 LiveCDs GNOME (32/64 bit)
2 USB KDE (32/64 bit) ~1GB large (same as LiveCDs but with all languages)
2 USB GNOME (32/64 bit) ~1GB large (same as LiveCDs but with all languages)
1 dual arch CD
-------
11 ISOs instead of 19 (the current state)

Explanation:
Only 2 LiveCDs per DE: Just put the most used languages or maybe only 
English on it. LiveCDs are usefull to check if everything is supported 
and bugfree or as a rescue system. This can be done with english as 
well. If you install the LiveCD a language selection could be used to 
download the preferred language.

4 USB Images:
Nearly the same as the LiveCDs but as an USB-Image. So we are more 
flexible with the size of the ISOs. I guess ~1GB is usefull, as you can 
put all languages on it but is still small enough for a quick download 
or for restricted bandwidth ...

2 DVDs as it it now

If we try to focus on USB-Images, we may get rid of the 64bit LiveCD Images.

Regards,
Thorsten

&gt;<i> Keep in mind that what you want is not necessarily what another one
</I>&gt;<i> want. So let start proposals here and discussion. Please add all
</I>&gt;<i> explanations to your proposal.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Let say we take one week on this so until 26/09 then we will make a
</I>&gt;<i> final proposal
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Cheers
</I>&gt;<i>
