Hi Rafael,

Maybe issue 'normal' for now, and let the poll continue up until the
deadline for artwork nears? [1], [2]. Week of 21st March. We may have a
wider test base by then to give opinions? I do also think that including
both on the ISO should not really cause the size to go over-size, but
that's one for Julien to decide as to what will squeeze onto our CD.

Regards,

Phill.
