[SOLVED] is cd-image(700m) already outdate?

[manhh]

within 24h, f18 shall release. lets look at site: http://torrent.fedoraproject.org/

Fedora-18-i686-Live-Desktop.torrent Fedora 18 i686 Live Desktop 889.0MB
Fedora-18-x86_64-Live-KDE.torrent Fedora 18 x86_64 Live KDE 831.0MB

f18live no long fit a cd(700m) image... while ubuntu1210 also do so.
I cannot believe this. is cd-image(700m) is already outdate.?

There was some debate on that when they decided to include LibreOffice on the desktop LiveCD. Their reasoning is that most people put it on a USB drive anyway, and don't burn it to a CD.

I really don't agree with their decision to make it larger than a standard CD, but nothing I can do to change it

I believe the Xfce spin still fits on a CD, though.

Edit:

You could file a bug in bugzilla, but it would probably get closed as not a bug since it was by design, but it would at least let them know that people do still use CD's

Yeah, I ran into that too & wondered why my burn wouldn't go until it dawned on me to check the ISO's size.

For the record; I, too, think it's "<CENSORED> - (by chilly willy)"!!!

there's the network install image, LXDE and Xfce images all still under 700MB.

I also notest that, it doesnt sound right, they are forcing people to use libre office even if they dont need to.
