I had it in my first spins, but it blew everything up... with its 
dependencies, it brought several hundred megabytes of data to the cd.

I totally agree with you, there is really great software in kdeedu; I 
have also thought of including marble and kalgebra, which are already in 
Fedora 8...

Gcompris is also great - and big. It has not so many dependencies, but 
it has its audio files for quite a lot of languages. It would be the 
smaller problem...

You see, what my problem is: I think even a switch from Gnome to Xfce 
would not give me enough free space, to include all the software I would 
like to include. I had created a Xfce based test cd, but after having 
included GCompris, there was no further space available. I think, a 
possible solution would be, to kick out some other tools (like firefox 
and totem, but I think this would not be enough...) - or, to create a dvd...

Thanks for your suggestions ;) - I will create some further builds and 
have a look at this...
