Maybe I am missing something ?
Maybe Free Software is about helping each other instead of being anal ?

In the end, this is nosense. The best way to do this is to open up a poll in the project page for knoppix. And ask Knoppix users if they want the switch.

Does the fact that Knoppix is distributed in a CD format prevent you from using it then? I thought DVD burners can burn CD's too? If that's the case, the situation is exactly the opposite from what you claim: "I have feature A, what do I care if the rest of the world does not and would not be able to use the software?"

not owning a DVD burner either.

In a way it does. A CD is too small for a modern distro, so
it must be crippled to fit on that medium.

Chris,

You obviously live in a world where your parents have spoilt you by buying all the new toys and by them not pointing out that you are a priviledged little pillock (an English word for idiot who knows no better). Not everybody has a DVD recorder for TV or a DVD burner in their PC, in fact most of the world's population do not have a PC.

Go get a life and an understanding of the real world, not that one you inhabit in your bedroom.
