Absolutely, I'm disappointed too to know that the DVD is not
installable. On all our earlier programs we supplied official Ubuntu
CDs or DVDs, we carefully avoided remastered ones since it is obvious
that they will create trouble since they didn't go through the same
rigorous testing that an official Ubuntu release goes through. I
would have opposed the idea of producing remastered DVDs if I knew
about it on the meeting that we did two days prior to the program. My
understanding was that the extra codecs/files were supplied on
separate directory on the DVD.
Anyhow what's done cannot be redone, so we'll have to take this as a
valuable lesson and be extra careful in the future. I understand that
the organisers were extremely busy with all the other issues and there
weren't much time in hand either.
