1 As you can probably guess, I'd definitely like to continue the DVD media
2 for the 2007.0 release.

147 What additional packages would we like to have on the LiveDVD? I have
148 no problem adding things like compiz, but they will *only* be usable for
149 people with cards supported entirely by open source drivers.
150
151 These are the packages from livecd-stage2, which rely on kernel sources
152 to compile.

169 media-libs/alsa-lib
170 media-libs/alsa-oss
171 media-sound/alsa-utils
172
173 One thing to remember is that we *only* allow packages that are marked
174 stable at the time of the snapshot to be included. This means that
175 suggestions made now will be added to the list, but may be commented (as
176 you see above) if they're not stable, or if they cause us too much
177 trouble during our release cycle. I also don't plan on adding things
178 that aren't usable directly from the CD. This means no ndiswrapper or
179 anything like it, since it doesn't function without drivers that we
180 cannot legally ship. If it doesn't work "out of the box" then we're not
181 going to be adding it.
182
183 I plan on adding stage3 tarballs to the DVD images, which increases
184 their minimally. Also, for 2006.1, we gathered all of the distfiles for
185 the entire release, including the LiveCD and LiveDVD images, to comply
186 with the GPL. These distfiles were for *everything* on the CD/DVD
187 images, not just the normal stuff from the Universal CDs. They amount
188 to 2.1GB. Should we include these also?
189
190 I'd also like to open up the floor for other suggestions. Now's your
191 chance to be heard if you want any say in what we might do for 2007.0's
192 release.
193
194 Thanks,
