proposal of a All-in-one LTS version of Slitaz

I really really really really really really really really really really  believe that  for each Slitaz's version an All-in-one version should be delivered for download - this all in one version should be updated like every 6 months like a LTS.   

Too many packages have missing , old version, mispealled lib modules, too many .desktop don't launch , too many dependencies . People reacting on the forum are maybe the only 5% of people needing help .. what do the others : they just go downlad an other Linux on distrowatch

  The team should include in 1 huge ISO  all the tested/complete/working/approved package and eventually let the users remove them self all the packages and firmwares they dont want (with an UI wizard and garbage collector-cleaner ).  In other words, reverse the logical : from stripped-out  -> big  ,  big -> stripped out.

LibreOffice, Blender, Firefox, Gimp, R ,flash-plugin ..  etc .. all will be already included and tested as working (at least launching) .  The updated of the system will be done every 6 months or more.

Have an ISO written in stone and granite and completely avoid all the dependies/updates issues coming from little updates/changes/modifications done by users.  Also, this way, each one will be 100% sure on which base they are communicating on forum as they have strictly the same system. The bugs would be more easy to track as more people could react to a very same problem after they check by themself  (they won't have to install the same packages /configure their system like the one asking help - so they can figure out more quickly the problem exposed by the other guy)
