I really would like to have a version of the GNUstep live CD at the
booth, but the last release that I did test had rather big problems. For example on my machine it was not even possible to stop the system, when ever you did it just started all over again. We should try to make sure that the version of the live CD we have at the FOSDEM in a different state.

Here is a short list of the problems with the CD that I remember:
- It took a long time to start up, during this it tried to get a network
connection via DHCP and also prepared the nfonts. I think the first
should be switched off and the fonts preprepared.
- There were no names on the dock icons, making it hard to realise what
they were standing for.
- The fonts didn#t display white space.
- There were no colour schemas predefined.

We can discuss those issues here:

http://wiki.gnustep.org/index.php/GNUstep_Live_CD

this has some advantages, for instance the status of some issue can be updated, new issues can be added and so on. the wiki is IMHO a much better suitable tool for this task than a mailinglist.
