Keep in mind that if we produce a separate cd with the speech software, |
| 21 |
that means yet another cd for each architecture that we know the speech |
| 22 |
software runs on, so I think the better route would be to just put it on |
| 23 |
all of our media that we produce for the affected architectures instead |
| 24 |
of asking releng to produce a separate cd for each release or autobuild. |
