I worked on the Extras and Additional Software page and folder.

I took some packages out.
Found the Mac text editor is now paid only.
I added some to it.

The folder that holds the English versions of these Win, Linux, and Mac OSX
packages is about 253 MB.  That makes this English N.A. DVD so far 4.1 
GB in size.
Not much room for any more packages [i.e. French and Spanish versions]

WOW - well that is quite the list there. You if nothing else, for me
anyway, that is nice to have all in one place.


I have been working on an English Free and Open Source package list.
http://www.lungstrom.com/list/
Since I moved over to Ubuntu for my desktop, I have not updated it, 
much, in the past year.  So I have this list.  The German language 
version had a German language site listed near the bottom of the page.  
It looks like it is for an Open Source DVD


Another wow - that is also nice. I take it this page is permanent and I
can use it as a reference?

http://www.opensource-dvd.de <http://www.opensource-dvd.de>and here is 
the English translation

of that page.

Well, not sure what you are, or if you are, asking here - BUT if you are
thinking that you would like to assemble a disk similar to the
opensoure-dvd.de then I will absolutely be willing to help work on that
with you. I would think that using most of the html pages you have put
together for the NA-CommDVD site you have up as a starting basis would
make sense, and suspect no one would mind. I feel strongly that at that
point we need to call it something else, The Lungstrum List DVD or such,
and I would certainly be happy to work on graphics and the like for the
new theme. 

If we go forward with that we should move off this list perhaps, but in
a due time.

Going forward with a NA LibreOffice disc, just my opinion, but I think
we should take a breath and on Tuesday[1] next all look at what is the
right direction to take. I'm not talking about stopping, rather think of
this last few weeks as having been a sprint[2], and now it's time to
stop look at what we have, what is on your site, what I have on this DVD
(I'll put the iso up to a location for the others here to have access to
over the weekend) and what is in the LibreOfficeBox. 

Just my thoughts on it this moment.

Best wishes, and again I'm really excited about what you are doing here

[1] In an Agile process we might call this a SCRUM, kind-a sort-a. 
- also Monday I'll be traveling so no real access to the net, but you
guys could start on Monday..and I expect to be on-line all weekend :)

[2] Sprint as a period of actions in a development process

I took that link out, since it is for a German language DVD. I wonder if 
I should put in my free list link and some others that may be good to 
use.  I have not done that yet.
