what would be the best way to fix this? different archiso2dual
parameters? different compression somewhere? revised packagelist?
moving some packages out of core? [is anyone aware of noticeable size
increases of the core repo or core packages?]
Perhaps it's time to deprecate the CD-R space requirement?
That sounds reasonable to me, I've been putting net installs on dvds
for a while now :P
If you want both core arch install cds, you could just burn 2 cds instead of 1.
Less convenient but shouldn't affect a lot, if any users.
Just my 2 cents.

I agree completely. CD is fairly ancient and even DVD is rather old. We
are Arch for we are progressive. Let's deprecate the CD space limit.
