Volker is collating the installee requests & preparing for them as he has suggested. A smooth, bulk network install will make an interesting workshop for everyone to see.
(I'd have recommended making 9.1 Personal the simple default, installing one-on-one by CD, unless people requested full kits.)
Ok?

Personal works really well, (tested on P2 vintage machines) - 1 CD.
There are 5-disk Pro sets kicking about too. This also installs & updates smoothly, out of the box.
Even better, there are 2 Pro DVDs (one of them the source code). There's more software on DVD1 than fits on 5 CDs, plus it's faster to install - apart from not having to disk jockey, a dvdrom reads DVDs faster than a cdrom reads CDs. All 9.1. On the day we should install from hard disk.
Happy to see you organise this Volker. Let us know any assistance you need.
No, they hadn't as yet. I would have burnt any late CD requests on the spot. We'll work around you though.I was thinking to offer duplicating media, for a reasonable fee though if that's acceptable. Anyone wishing to take the media away from the evening needs to tell me at least 1-2 days beforehand, or else I can mail them out afterwards. Or have other arrangements for supplying media already been made?
