Thanks for that note. It sounds like we should also take a closer look 
at the JRE redistribution.

We are just working on the EN portion of the disk and hope to work on 
the ES and FR portion. Would you have any suggestions as to extensions 
and templates for ES and FR languages.

How did you treat the documentation part of your DVD. Did you provide 
only the EN version?

Cheers

Marc
