[Ambassadors] Default media size

[Zoltan Hoppar]

Hi,

I think there is one possibility. We have seen an transition, where 32
bit fading away into the past, and less and less user takes the 32 bit
version. Right now the Multi Live DVD contains four 64 bit and four 32
bit liveCD system. IF we sacrifice the less needed 32 bit systems,
then we can have DVD size, or miniDVD (1.4+ Gbyte) bootable images.
Also I say that we shouldn't have to forget the new primary arch
members like ARM, and moreover I think we should add our LiveUSB
generator to our livedvd, to have instant USB systems from disc.

Zoltan
