Re: Gentoo installer vs current installation method, what about later?

Ok, but will the CD still ahve everything it had before, or will you be removing stuff to make 
room for X and all of that? If so, as I suspect, what will be taken out? Is there a place where 
people can look at what will be removed and maybe vote on what needs to stay?

Thanks,
Gabriel
