I don't know who should read this, but I am sure someone here will know. Warly?
This is an idea which has been mentioned in other mandrake-related lists and on MF before, but I would like to suggest that for 8.2, Mandrake distributes (possible on the CD) official GPL CD labels, so that those of us who would like to give copies of GPL CDs away to others can give professional looking sets away. IMHO, they should be similar to the commercial CDs, except for some pretty large text saying something to the effect of "These CDs are the freely-downloadable GPL CDs of Mandrake Linux 8.2, to get the commercial version with more software, manuals and installation support, or to support Mandrakesoft, go to http://www.mandrakestore.com"; Jewel case inserts (with lists of all the good places to get support , such as http://www.*mandrake*.{com,net,org} and all the mailing lists) would also be cool. If the Mandrakesoft marketing dept hasn't thought of this, they should,as it is an easy way to get free marketing/advertising (since Mandrakesoft doesn't have to pay for printing or distribution).
