> Hey,
>
> one change we are planning to make to the desktop spin in F13 is to go
> from targeting a cd to targeting a 1g usb stick. That will give us
> enough breathing room to include not only OpenOffice, but also some
> example content on the spin. We've wanted to do that for a long time,
> but the cd size restriction have prohibited that.
>
> The example content is meant to serve several purposes:
>
> - Be informative and/or pleasant
>
> - Allow users to try the included apps
>
> - Showcase content that has been produced with open source apps
>
> - Make the desktop spin more useful, e.g. to ambassadors
>
>
> Examples that might fit some of these categories are:
>
> - Suitably licensed music or movie trailers (big buck bunny has been
> mentioned already)
>
> - Spreadsheets or documents that contain interesting facts about Fedora
> or open source
>
> - the 1-page release notes pdf that was debuted for F12
>
>
> The purpose of this mail is to solicit proposals for content that might
> fit into these categories. Please send your proposals to
> fedora-desktop-list or just reply.

> Thanks!

Will all this magical content be in one easily-removable package? ;-)
