Hello!
Just a question of interest:
How have you packed so much software to just two CDs?
No one seems to be jumping on this one. While I can take no credit
myself for this feat (and bow down humbly to those who can), I'll
take a stab at a short answer:
* standardized, interchangeable, re-usable parts
* philosophical aversion to bloatware
* much of the software "included" is not really on the discs, it's
just pointed to from within the ports tree and downloaded on demand
