[Grahame] That's always a problem - anyone have any ideas of what they
would like to see included?

I was thinking along the lines of a pretty slim software base of core
applications - KDE, Koffice, Openoffice, XMMS, Scribus - one of each
application type (office, audio etc...) Enough for the average user to
begin with and for us to use as a demo on which to run presentations.

LLUG specific wallpapers, themes etc as well could be a nice idea

[Grahame] I'm an RPM man myself...

The CD boots up at level 3 and has X installed

All you need to provide is the scripts and stuff for users to do a
general install.

[Grahame] By this I presume you mean HDD install?
