Hi iluggers, have not been sending emails on LUG for quite some time due to my busy schedule out of cal.
however, on seeing the present exchanges on the downloading and cutting of cds. we have a dedicated leased line at our place in saltlake. we have around 4-5 cd writers. if needed we can make it available for the LUG. just send the url for download etc. regards alok ----Original Message Follows---- From: Indranil Das Gupta <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ilug-cal] Re: All LINUX Distributions, if you want!!

Let Sougata send the CDs to someone with the LUG, two people have already come forward on the list -- Dhruv and Abhijit. 2. Let us build a list of volunteers who are willing to replicate & distribute the CDs (criteria -- must have access to CD-Writers and necessary permissions to use them for this purpose) 3. Let these volunteers collect a copy of the CDs from the person(s) to whom Saugata may send the master set of CDs. 4. Let the volunteers, preferably located in different parts of the city, make copies and distribute to members with the closest proximity. Benefits: 1. IMHO, this way, there should not be too much load on any single individual; 2. We also get to have multiple sources of replication/distribution leading to greater number of CDs going round the city at a much faster pace. Think de-centralised, think like Linux... lets all co-operate on this one... we shud be able to make it work. Just my 2p on the matter.... --indra __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Make a great connection at Yahoo!
