They would only fund specific cultural or educational projects, and "copying CDs" wouldn't be enough as a project description... ;-) If Canonical doesn't want to give away so many CDs anymore, maybe they can sell them to LoCoTeams at a low price that just covers the costs involved? -- Jan Claeys -- loco-contacts mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/loco-contacts
