Thanks!

I agree that the selected defaults are not the applications that I use
regularly and find valuable.

Some changes to gnome are regressions and should not even be considered
to implement the changes. A save session should be available at logout.

If you add a local.repo file with the path to your dvd and also disable
the Internet bound repos, you should be able to grab packages from the
dvd instead of the Internet.
You are right that there should be an automatic detection to chec!
k
if
you have local media inserted with the rpms before it goes out to the
Internet. This should have a bug report to add this sort of detection
and local install if media is present in a drive.
