Hi Nicolas,

Just a few remarks on the kickstart you submitted;

the timezone should already be applied by kickstart; I removed the cp in 
%post, I'll submit them to the spin-kickstarts git repo later today.

There's fedora-livecd-desktop-default.ks for "international" purposes; 
it includes @*-support, for example.

The KDE non-localized kickstart does not remove man-pages-* explicitly, 
but I'm not sure whether they end up on the image (pulled in by 
dependencies?). Maybe, if they are not pulled in by dependency resolving 
or anything, we could just do the same for the desktop spin to resolve 
the problem.

It is! I'm thinking to add this to the default localized spin thing so 
that these get less fat and people can include (large) dictionaries etc.
