I've included the debian-cd folk on this reply too because what I need to know is how to data model these DVDs and what are the likely types of DVDs or sets of DVDs to come out. I can then make the neccessary database (I adjust my html source using a database) and web page changes which then run through the translators. Currently, this is the way CDs are categorised: - Offical CD : (with optionally any combination of non-free, non-us, contrib and vendor CD) - custom CD - vendor CD: (with optinally any combination of nonfree nonus and contrib) - non-US CD - non-free CD - contrib CD - multidist (like the old infomagic) Then there are the arches, I'll probably have to add some of those for woody but that's OK. So what are the likely DVDs that are going to be created? I think the first one would be - vendor DVD and then maybe - Official DVD Is it likely that what is stored on the DVD will be the same as what is stored on the CD or is it likely to be different. The difference is the first type is a option on an existing item, the second is a new item. None of this needs to be set in stone, I can change it later but I'd like to get some warning if possible. BTW, if anyone says they are a new vendor and they'd like to get listed or things like that, flick them over to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (an alias, no lists in the address). - Craig -- Craig Small VK2XLZ GnuPG:1C1B D893 1418 2AF4 45EE 95CB C76C E5AC 12CA DFA5 Eye-Net Consulting http://www.eye-net.com.au/ <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> MIEEE <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Debian developer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
