[Live-demo] Re: ISO go/no go

[Cameron Shorter]

Jody,
It sounds like we have some major issues to resolve on the apple mac. It 
would be great if we can resolve them in the next 24 hours, but I can't 
see that happening. So I suggest that we include "tested on Pentium 
based systems" on the liveDVD cover page.

All,
Are we able to resolve any of the other issues in the next 24 hours, and 
Alex, are you in a position to cut a 2.0.2 build again?

Where possible, can we please track these issues in the issue tracker:
