Re: what to call CD releases was: ITP seahorse



My goal is to convey to the disk vendors which versions to press.  As a
practical matter, there is no need to press the US-exportable versions
as physical CDs: US vendors should press the not-US-exportable version for
domestic sale and non-US vendors should press the not-US-exportable
version for all purposes.  (US vendors could press the US-exportable
version for export sale, but no one would buy them.)

The problem is that we also need to give clear notice to the US vendors
that Debian believes the not-US-exportable version cannot be exported from
the US.  It is important to choose names which convey a sufficient amount
of information to allow the vendors to understand all of this quickly.
