They were a major drain on mirror resources as well as release engineering team resources as the package sets needed to be adjusted each time. They also covered less then half the available packages so they were only useful if you where lucky enough to find your desired packages on the CDs. We certaintly wouldn't object to someone else maintaining infrastructure to build ISOs like these since they are useful, they just weren't worth the effort from the relase engineer's perspective. -- Brooks --=20 Any statement of the form "X is the one, true Y" is FALSE.
