Better don't mention DVDs for now. DVD generation has been tested, generally appears to work, and Attila Nagy now produces DVD snapshots for testing/unstable. However, I doubt that official DVD images will be available in time for the woody release. They might well appear later on though... Joey: When potato was released, the rush on the CD mirrors was quite a problem. Could you maybe add a sentence or two about jigdo - it will provide a better download experience, especially when the CD mirrors are overloaded. E.g.: When fetching CD images over the Internet, consider using the new Jigsaw Download (short "jigdo") scheme. With jigdo, you need not access one of the few CD mirrors, instead you can retrieve the images from your nearest regular Debian mirror. Cheers, Richard (jigdo author, never too polite to plug his program;) -- __ _ |_) /| Richard Atterer | CS student at the Technische | GnuPG key: | \/¯| http://atterer.net | Universität München, Germany | 0x888354F7 ¯ '` ¯
