Actually, I've not been "waiting" for anything as such --- I was just
so knackered after the London Expo that I couldn't face sitting in
front of a computer over the weekend, and I've been too busy since to
look at doing any images.
Reading this, it seems that I would have been jumping the gun anyway,
so my laziness pays off yet again <grin>.
I should have chance to do something about this tomorrow morning for a
little while (probably only long enough to start a run resulting in
broken images ;-), and then be able to do a proper job in the evening,
so if people want to give me some hints about whether to grab the
latest debian-cd from CVS, or elsewhere, and which boot-floppies I
should wait for before I start the build, I'd appreciate it.
It would be nice if we could make the test-cycle-2 set be of the
overlapping US/non-US CD#1 variety if possible, but it depends how
urgently people want to get their hands on CD images, and I suppose it
also depends on how many more test cycles we're expecting.
I've got room to do more than one test-cycle-2 set, so I guess I could
do a USexportable set initially, and then try for a combined US/non-US
one after that. Any thoughts?
Cheers, Phil.
