For me, I though I said something like a general summary of what is on 
the DVD, not a detailed list.

Having a summary list of what is one the DVD could be as brief as:

Install files for Windows, MacOSX, and Linux.
Dictionary files for many localized languages.
Add on Extensions to add more functions to LibreOffice.
Templates and sample files.
Artwork and other Clipart.
Documentation and Guides on how to use LibreOffice.
Other free software extras.

Just make an outline list like that and maybe add some samples 
information on the "types" of files or add ons.

example:

Other free software extras
     Browsers, Email clients, Calendar packages, text editors, and more.
