I am - scripts permitting - about to burn what is in theory the final cut of 
Mandrake 9.0 (it's in deep freeze and France haven't fiddled with it in 8 
hours), plus sundry contribs (but not hot-babe, they moved that to PLF), onto 
5 CDs from a Cooker mirror. If that succeeds, the CDs will be available in 
Armadale later today. Are you anywhere near there?

The official Download Edition distro is 2 installation CDs plus one (2/3 full) 
internationalisation CD.

Cheers; Leon
