Hmmm... if you wait until people agree on what are the best 700 MB of
OS software, you'll grow reaaaaaaaaaaaally old, I'm afraid!

Said this, I'd like to remember to all list members the existence of
the RULE project (see signature) and of its byproduct directly related
to this. After reading the home page, please go to:

   http://www.rule-project.org/article.php3?id_article=1

It can distribute different CDs, just ask. Or join it, if you feel
like it.

HTH,
