I asked for it because people I work with asked me if there is a place close to home where they could get a Linux installation disk and what distros are available. I knew about this list but could not find it published anywhere so I asked Wesley to send it here. Would it be useful to put it on the Clug page? Maybe you are familiar with the history of this list, but for those who are not, from ages back when CLUG used to have a real world base at St. Albans Community Centre, and downloading gigabytes was expensive, Linux enthusiasts used to bring Linux disk images to be stored on the computers there for everyone interested to bring his or her own CD or DVD to burn the desired distro. The archive has survived the time kindly cared for by Wesley. Today the Fedora distribution was updated with the latest release, Fedora 12. HTH, Adrian
