Thats why we should drop the box.

Only use dvd, press enough for a quarterly delivery, drop it in an
envelope when necessary. Box in only usefull in shelves, at dealer
store, not by mail.

You know that's not possible. New major stuff come always at the last
time. We should use very early feature freeze and we can't

So, let's give it a

we already had a 8 month delay at the beginning, two years ago. and I
don't say we don't have to use 8 month, only package the updates and
send them with the initial dvd (if respin dvd is too hard)

As I see it, most people here see the problem when they do, as I do,
often demos. the update stage is much too long (even with highband
network). But most of the world *don't have* large bandwith.

I manage LDP mirrors, many countries still have lowband network even
in universities
