Re: [opensuse-factory] RFC: What should be on the DVD and what's fine online only?

Heya

I know how many use texlive and I don't talk about dropping it out of the
distribution, but I can't hold it on DVD unless I drop several other
packages.

My impression is that the dvd user base is these days more based in regions
where you don't have broadband internet, so maybe the package list should try
reflecting that, texlive is important for educational stuff, the german suse
manual can be downloaded nearly everywhere in germany without real impact.

So I'd prefer splitting where possible, but otherwise I'd try dropping big
manuals, qt4 docs are nice but developers only, tex is quite important in any
science / educational institute.


Cya,
Karsten
