I managed to get the followings things on a DVD:

* NetBSD 2.0
* the 4738 binary packages of pkgsrc-2004Q4 (all gunzipped && bzip2 --best 'ed)
* a copy of pkgsrc-2004Q4 (for compilation from source) .tar.bz2'ed.
* a native build of OpenOffice.org 1.1.4 (compiled by Zafer Aydogan)
* the netbsd guide in pdf format and as html tarball (.tar.bz2'ed)

For some DVD-R(W)'s I had to specify -overburn to growisofs or dvdrecord.

Some of them burned may be a nice gift for the audience of a NetBSD lecture.
