Okay. I will probably standardize on the Kodak Ultima CD-Rs that have gold
+ silver coating which seems to improve quality significantly, and will
keep the pricing simple, charging P150 per CD for all standard CDs (list
to be published together with the official announcement, so all those
interested just blow your suggestions away but hold your horses).
Customized CDs will also be accepted with a reasonable lead-time and
additional labor cost involved (this won't be as much as you'll pay for
staying online to download all that stuff). ;>
Now, a cosmetic follow-up that I was hoping all you future end-users could
help me out with (if only Microsoft asked questions as much as I do, we'd
all be happy with their products, hehehe): considering that with Linux
it's really the contents that matter, is it important that you get a nice
CD label stuck on your burned CD-R? Or will handwriting (using a permanent
marker) be fine? Of course I understand that if we could all have our way
then "the nicer the better", but I'm wondering how significant this tidbit
is to people paying for what they get.

Would anyone have a decent tool to recommend that I can use to synchronize
a local repository of updates with the entire directory tree of updates of
Mandrake/RedHat/whatever-else? I can probably use wget, but I don't know
how efficient a solution that will be. I don't know how good rsync is, and
I don't know if there are any other utilities available. Suggestions would
be great (I'll handle reading up on them before I finally pick one). I'm
thinking of something that I can make a cron job for to synchronize some
directories nightly. :)

right now. ;>
