I haven't heard anyone say they are against having this yet. The size |
26 |
is being discussed but it is not blocking it from being added to the |
27 |
CD. I'm on dial-up and the time is not trivial to me but I still think |
28 |
it is worth having the software on the CD for people that can't see the |
29 |
screen. I'm evening thinking a person could install Gentoo with no |
30 |
monitor. Like maybe a server or something. |
