Sorry to be rude, but the question is more short term : Do we have the time to test another i386, 3 days before the release ? - If yes, we should respin now, and start the test (because a respin will make the ISO CD size, I done the necessary cut). - If no, so we have to live with a non CD size ISO for 14.10, something we did not announce to our users ...
The question to be CD size or not is not something we have to discuss 3 days before the release, let's discuss it for 15.04.
