How many Fedora 6 installs do you know of that have JUST core installed, no
extras? We've long needed to be able to access Extras at upgrade time, now
more than ever. Look at the crapstorm that ubuntu went through when their
upgrade feature didn't take universe into account.
so we need a everything DVD "Fedora 7 Complete"
mirros can have the iso file and loopback mount it to get the "normal
tree" saving diskspace. but I doubt that many mirror will do it.
we could also ship it only over bittorent.
