which tools would be on the eda cd ??
	- geda and all associated tools

	additional stuff
	- geda pkg manager :-)
	- eagle would be my thingie i'd want

	- pcb tools 
	- schematics tools
	- various simulation tools
	- netlist tools
	- timing tools
	- endless list to fill up a 4GB or 8GB dvd :-)
	- other stuff ?

the packager issue will not be solvable .. everybody has a different distro
	- *.rpm  vs *.deb  vs *.tgz ( my preference )

	a standalone cd would be good .. since it'd usually work
	and it'd use /home/<user-name> for working area on the disk

the problem is some tools expect new libs than what is currently
on the users system
	- overwriting it might cause their other apps to die/segfault

opencores.org had a cd.. but i donno its status
