* [[User:Robatino|robatino]] - I notice that for Spins, "CD size" is considered to be 703 MiB, not 700 MiB. According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CD-ROM#Capacity this should be okay, but according to http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/test/2010-April/089943.html it might not be.

** [[User:Bruno|Bruno]] - At this point this is moot for F14. However, looking around some more it does appear that the size allowed varies somewhat by the specific media. Using 700 MiB as a safe upper bound (for spins targeting CD media) is probably a reasonable thing to do going forward.
