I have been building DVDs with debian-cd and the last CD build I did was
some months ago.  I think we will have problems building a useful CD1 if
we have the two versions like we have had in the past, one with non-US,
the other without.  The space vacated by non-US was left empty which meant
that the remaining discs were identical in both sets.

I would suggest that the second CD be the US/non-US CD, or the third if
this needs to happen.

Another question to ponder. Is the time right to switch to 700 MB media?

Linus is quite right, West Islanders are rather like that.

Phil, waiting for an Aussie bite.
