I'm in favor of some sort of mini cd periodically when the package 
changes are substantial. This might help setting up some programs that 
need replaced by other programs, like gamin vs. fam.

I think fine tuning the installation this way would save from needing to 
download complete 4 CD sets or a DVD.

I have a high speed connection. THe consideration is more for those with 
metered or using a dialup connection. Those users can participate also 
better w/ this sort of process.

Just my thoughts on the process. Having a longer span between test2, 
test3 or downloading 4 CDs is fine w/ me.

Experience is the worst teacher.  It always gives the test first and
the instruction afterward.
