Detailed specification

Note: This specification is still in the drafting/discussion state. The decision will be made at a later date.

This specification discusses the benefits and disadvantages of moving to a 1GB ISO size.

  • Able to reintroduce Gnumeric
  • Less maintaining work (considering we don't fill the ISO to the edge again...)
  • Able to (re)introduce more languages

Disadvantages

  • Optical media limited to DVD

Things to do

  • Prepare an announcement to be published parallel to change
  • Document alternative methods of installing Xubuntu with a CD-size (or smaller) image
