We'd like to hear your opinion, which images are necessary for next snapshot (supposedly, 2016.10). We think that minimal one, Mate and Gnome one are enough. We are going to avoid delivering Gnome ISO image after next snapshot (in 2017).<br></blockquote></div><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">Presumably minimal is the new "text" iso.<br></div></div></div></blockquote></span></div><br></div><div>We don’t consider it to be a replacement for text as of this moment. It’s just a much stripped down versions of text installer and in the future, text installer might be deprecated.
