the following are two lists of spells I have been working with for the next 
ISO. 
"must have "  are the minimum for a working compile environment
"optional" are spells useful for remote admin, fileserving, network fs 
mounting, some daemons, mail client and some other useful utilities.

I looked at adding xfree86-4.3 but with it's depends it is 60 MB, even with 
all the html docs, fonts and man pages stripped out it is still ~25 MB. So I 
don't think it should be added.
links-twibright or lynx and irssi should probably also go into the optional 
list too.

Please take a look, let me know how you feel about the lists, the ones marked 
(arguable), and if any other useful utilities etc should be added.
