Hi,
  the liveDVD  contains more software then the "server text installer 
images" CD
  it appears OI devs will be focus issuing updates only to ON and a 
handful of selected packages that
  are server based, gnome,firefox,thunderbird,etc are  not listed.


      What we'd provide

The release would be aimed for February, and titled "2011.02". It would 
be based
on oi_148. We would only provide the Text Installer and Automated Installer
ISOs.

We would provide security and critical bug fixes only for:

1. OS/Net (The core OS consolidation)
2. A limited set of server oriented packages that have the greatest 
usage and
attack "surface area". The initial list I can think of includes:

    * OpenSSL
    * Sendmail
    * Perl 5.8.4
    * Python 2.6
    * Ruby
    * zip, bzip2, gzip
    * Apache HTTPD 2.2
    * PHP 5.X
    * MySQL 5.X.X
    * Postgresql 8.4
    * Java
    * Tomcat
    * GNU Coreutils
    * GCC
    * RSync
    * ISC BIND
    * Bash
    * Curl
    * wget
