That's enough of gnome not to be laughable? Yes. Actually gnome-core alone is launchable, but you won’t do much with it.

Yup, NM is only in the full task. > Rough size numbers (probably 20 mb or more off in some direction): > > i386 amd64 > available space on CD #1 for gnome 372 mb 392 mb > ----------------------------------------------------- > gnome-desktop-environment with recommends 543 mb 584 mb > gnome-desktop-environment no recommends 366 mb 394 mb > list 1+2 with recommends 411 mb 436 mb > list 1+2 no recommends 257 mb 279 mb > list 1 with recommends 307 mb 332 mb > list 1 no recommends 214 mb 236 mb This would need to be tested, but 1+2 without recommends sounds like the good thing to add. We could remove the mail client (evolution) if it turns out too big, nowadays the media player looks more important. How should I name the new metapackage? My first thought is just to move these packages from gnome-desktop-environment to gnome-core, and to make gnome-core the key package. I’m adding -release to the CC list to see if this suits them.
