I'd recommend limiting this to a small number rather than offering a bunch of 
different choices.  Make people aware that they can have the choices, but 
asking them "Would you like a copy of Ubuntu, RH, blah, blah, blah?" will end 
up in one of two ways.

1) People will ask for a copy of all of them. This is expensive, and all but 
one of the CDs are ultimately just a waste.

2) I suspect people will be frustrated and overwhelmed because they'll face a 
choice they are not in a position to answer because they have no idea of the 
benefits to any of the various distros.

To that end, and I know this will be disagreed with, I'd suggest that you 
offer Red Hat, or Ubuntu.  Simply because they have by far the best 
documentation on the net.

This still leaves the ubuntu/kubuntu question open.  (xubuntu/edubuntu/Ubuntu
