umm... I don't that was the point (that it can't work for everyone). |

However it would be nice if I didn't have to download a tarball. |

I see the point in why it's hard with distfiles but how hard would it |
| 5 |
be to add tarballs and limited distfiles. to a "minimal cd) and make |
| 6 |
it universal and put it up for download? maybe and make a note in the |
| 7 |
handbook "distfiles are not supported" or some such. I really don't |
| 8 |
understand why this is so difficult? the tarballs wouldn't be changing |
| 9 |
from the ones that are on the mirrors. so what is the hangup? I doubt |
| 10 |
it's storage space and bandwidth. (btw I've built livecds using |
| 11 |
catalyst) |
