Why are we even considering this? DVD's and DVD drives will soon (a few years) go the way of the dodo bird. I cannot remember the last time I actually used a DVD as I now always copy the install image to a thumb drive because the install goes much faster.
So, I take it YOU do not care for the content of the DVD; so I count you as +1 for any kind of drop request from now on... Thanks.
What about starting with the DVD use case? What is the DVD good for, for who? How is it used? This will define what should be on the DVD media and what is just nice to have.
Then we could put packages into at least two categories 1. Must have ~ cannot be removed 2. Nice to have ~ openSUSE users could vote for them and/or we could decide using some facts, such as usage statistics (we have them, don't we?)
I also like the idea.
Fully agree; the usecase is something we will need to find (again) for the DVD; problem is that this discussion is likely to take a bit more time (anybody on this list knows that people tend to talk forever); but we're running low on space now, hence the more direct approach of saving space 'right now' with something I could make out rather quickly (and it is one of the larger packages).
I also liked the idea of another optional DVD medium. We could provide more software instead of less and would fix your problem immediatelly...
I'd prefer not to mix meta-discussion about the DVD itself in this thread right now.
IMHO translation of documentation could go there... Best regards, S_W -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
