Is it possible to have an official cd with all the
language/language-desktop tasks included for the languages supported
by the installer (similar to the ones for kde and xfce)? We could call
this -l10n. It would solve this issue for quite a few languages and it
would every language team from maintaining a custom cd for its
language.

Does it sounds good? Is it difficult to implement before etch release?

Cheers
