The September edition of the ToolKit had 1.5 CD's of packages and 1.5 CD's of distfiles. This will now leave us with 2 CD's of packages and 1 CD of distfiles. Since we already have packages and no distfiles on the -RELEASE CD's, shouldn't the toolkit have distfiles and no packages? Or could the -STABLE or Express Demo be replaced by packages instead?
