Hi Tim, Well, I really this but right now you can not distribute those files.
Look this started as you wanting to give a disk to some friends - how it got to be a formal project release in some peoples mind I don't know - it would be great to make this into a community release (meaning some people working on something that conforms to the TDF guidelines for preserving that organizations brand and logo - the files you have do not do that. Also, there are files there that IMO can not be released as you do not have the right to do so. (only a couple of those that I can see) So - what I am asking is for folks to stop, really just stop and start over with looking at what you are doing. Then please get off the international list, unless you want to be a formal project at the TDF level in which case much will need changing, both in content and process, and as I've told you - I doubt the idea effort would be allowed, it's that's simple. If you want a disk for hand out by YOU great, but then it needs to be branded for YOU. If you want to work on a local community disk that is great, then it needs to be branded as a Community effort vs a TDF effort. (only the German club seems to be capable of deciding on their own what is TDF official - BTW) Thanks Drew On Tue, 2011-03-01 at 11:11 -0500, webmaster for Kracked Press Productions wrote: > On 03/01/2011 10:45 AM, Jeff Chimene wrote: > > On Tue, Mar 1, 2011 at 4:35 AM, webmaster for Kracked Press Productions< > > [email protected]> wrote: > > > >> On 02/28/2011 10:09 PM, Jeff Chimene wrote: > >> > >>> On Mon, Feb 28, 2011 at 8:02 PM, webmaster for Kracked Press Productions< > >>> [email protected]> wrote: > >>> > >>> On 02/28/2011 08:25 PM, Rob Cummings wrote: > >>>> > <snip> > >>>>> 7 to 10 hours to upload the file at max upload speeds is not my idea > >>>> for > >>>> P2P files, but could work one-to-one maybe. > >>>> > >>> True.
