        Since I'm not an English native speaker, I apologize for my _very_ poor 
English. I also apologize for any mistake in text interpretation...

        I _think_ that build a lot of boot CDs (2007.0, 2007.1, 2007.2, 2007.3 
and so 
on) is an wasting of time and get off the KISS principle. You already have a 
_lot_ of boot CDs and/or another methods in order to install your Gentoo's 
system on a new machine. So, why should I* build an new boot CD just for two* 
people use? I could use this time in order to fix bugs, improve installations 
UI, give a bath in my dog or watch a movie with my girlfriend... :-)

        _But_ I agree that Gentoo _should_ have an better/easiest installation 
method 
for those days when you can't wait and/or be typing 83465247238 commands. :-P

        So: I _think_ that Gentoo's installation CD can have an/be graphical 
installer, but __I__ still also _think_ that's a wasting of time. :-)

* "So, why should I build an new boot CD just for two people use?" => I'm not 
an developer. But I think that you understand my point. :-)

        Best regards,
