This is fantasic bit of work - reading through the email, I agree - this
should give us a pretty good idea on the split.

One point though - if we were to do :

dvd#1.iso
dvd#2.iso ( which contains things otherwise not installable via the
installer )

and a distro-everything.iso ( at about 7GB, for people who want to host
it on USB keys and nfs mounts etc ),

then is there any point in the dvd#2 ? if people cant use it install time ?
