David, I seem to have created some misunderstanding with my first mail,
so I'll try again. Sorry.

"an install DVD" and probably "install CDs".

This here seems to have been the first misunderstanding: What I wanted
to say was, that I would like it very much, if the script is attached to
the wiki page itself so that you don't have to pull it down from an
external entity -> selfhosting Wiki. You can do this with
"attachment:mkdvdiso.sh" - the scriptname then shows up as a link to the
script with a small paper-clip icon next to it.

"The script uses"

"need to download". "change URL to the closest download mirror".

What I meant here: Why not directly put "mirrors.centos.org" there? That
already *is* a distributed environment, so the user doesn't have to rely
on *one* external entity. But I'm not anal about that. 

Regards,

Ralph
