My propossal too.

- - There is one disk with only oss software, so it is redistributable.
- - There is another disk (add-on disk) with only non-oss softwre, so it is
not redistributable.

I'm not against a non-oss add-on CD. But note that right now the DVD
doesn't includes the full non-oss repo. So if the non-oss is removed
from the DVD what we lose is only:

You say nothing: mp3, flash, realplayer, acroread and opera.

The point is not the bandwidth, it's the ease of use. The current
configuration of the DVD is offering it, the other proposed solutions,
for one reason or the other, do not.

P.S. I fully agree with what Bryen said on the additional medium.

Regards,
Alberto
