I have even better news,

julien (our boss on lubuntu-devs) has not only got the alternate iso onto a
diet, but the release team have also re-spun it.

Hat's off to the people who do care. Please let us know if the alternate is
also CD sized. I know there are other bugs on the system, but getting a CD
sized installation is quite a step forward. Next release.... we tackle
other bugs :D

Regards,

Phill.
