for x86_64 we now have

i686 is ~100MB bigger.

do we want to limit the amount of both repos to fit on a DVD (singlelayer)? this might become hard as pkg size usually raises each release. maybe we can go over that limit but would have keep out packages (e.g. i18n) from DVD releases.

opinions?

IMHO there are still enough packages waiting for repo cleanup. And in case we want to make such a DVD, we can decide what parts to leave out then.
