BTW, the idea 5+1+Multimedia is a great DVD to have (maybe a little more tricky to host (legal issues?), but one can tailor its needs) :-) People who like "all-in-one" solutions will appreciate...
I can imagine that a company or school has some specific software that they want to distribute as well. If you only need CD1-3 pluse some from CD6, there is plenty to place.
Or somebody who writes a book, to include tests, and hand-on examples.
OK, enough about makeSUSEdvd. I just peeked and it looks as if 50% of the postings is about makeSUSEdvd and it should be about openSUSE. :-/

Hi houghi, precisely. But having makeSUSEdvd *is* about openSUSE. In the past, when i distributed to friends, at work, etc. 5 CDs, there was a kind of "Ok, thanks", but it was dissuasive to DJ for some people. While having *just one* single support, people are more likely to use it. Just noticed that. Personally, i used and use CDs set only when there is no DVD player, like an older laptop. Of course, networking exists, but what about when you are away? So i have to bring all the CD span set. When it will be needed 5 DVDs, maybe we'll start thinking about *one* new media, etc. etc. So houghi, OK for your final note, but being easily customizable *and* distributable is a value i appreciate.
