They're *almost* ready; there were 3 causes of delay: * r3 needed a couple more local tweaks in debian-cd * r3 is bigger than expected, so needed several more runs to allow me to fine-tune the DVD sizes in particular * the build machine suffered hardware failure part-way through the run creating netinst/business card CDs I was hoping to be past all of those, but I've just noticed a bug in source CD#1 that will need fixing. I expect to have all the CDs and DVDs ready tonight (UK time). -- Steve McIntyre, Cambridge, UK.
