My computer will be there, but I only have a CD-R/RW drive, no DVD.
I have 7 Debian 3.0 ("woody") binary CDs, but they're from 2002 and
probably too much hassle to bother with. (You'd have to download a huge
pile of updates to catch up with the current 3.0r4.)
If it turns out that CDs aren't available at the meeting, you could try
Paul Swafford at e-cafe, or Philip Charles.

By the way... wrt. Rik's post, I have been running Debian at home for
about 8 years. So, I'm comfortable and happy with it. But please don't
expect a Debian guru; that's not me. Basically I'm just hoping to share
some tips, not all Debian specific, and to show people around a well
lived-in computer running GNU/Linux.
