It's not a "move". It has been like this since at least 9.0, maybe even 8.2 (there was a large outcry about abiword being missing for 9.0 I think). > It would be better to remove some > documentations from the download edition instead of the kernel-source. > Now tutorials about rpmdrake will be more complex...

Of course: $ du -sh 9.1/i586/ 2.3G 9.1/i586 (so, unless you have a way to get 2.3GB into 3 CDs ....) 9.2 will only be worse (more packages moved into main). > Are they all in the 3CD Powerpack edition ? They are all in ProSuite, and I think all on the workstation DVD, I'm not sure about Powerpack.
