That's not strictly true. I use Plasma as my DE but I also some GNOME applications, such as gnumeric and gimp. Conversely I expect many other DE users may enjoy KDE apps, such as digikam etc. Some of those choices may come from legacy & interoperability cases, other times it could just be the great features, eg konsole is a superb terminal emulator.
Well in these cases they could install these apps after and still have there main system running off the initial image, or continue to use the DVD.
I don't wish to denigrate the genuine issues of lack/cost of bandwidth, but pigeon-holing users into a single DE ISO for the mainstream download may remove a lot of the flexibility currently offered.
Providing per DE iso's doesn't mean we need to drop the DVD. -- Simon Lees (Simotek) http://simotek.net Emergency Update Team keybase.io/simotek SUSE Linux Adelaide Australia, UTC+10:30 GPG Fingerprint: 5B87 DB9D 88DC F606 E489 CEC5 0922 C246 02F0 014B
