As of now. The r1a4 anyboot image is 804MiB, with about 20MiB free.
So, if we aimed for CD size,then some programs/optional packages
would
need to be trimmed out.
Ahh.. glad we don't have to trim 7304MiB :)
I'm for moving to a DVD image for the "final" releases... most
computers made
within the last 7 years have dvd drives, and external usb dvd-rom's can
be
found for under $20 usd
It does raise the cost of the media a bit though :\
We could remove all the "extra" apps from the slim CD version if we go
with
a CD and a DVD release.
Optional 10.29MiB
WonderBrush - 6.49MiB
Vision - 1.36MiB
Pe - 2.44MiB
And if we get desperate:
WebPositive - 23.87MiB
These all could be installed post OS installation anyway.
