    The answer is yes, you should be able to easily fit DragonFly onto
    one of those mini-CD's.  The main release has indeed outgrown 210MB,
    but if you build a normal release and then cd into /usr/release/root
    I'll bet you can find bunches of things in there that can be removed,
    then regenerate the ISO.
