Prabin, would it be possible for you to add yourself to the CD/DVD vendors table on the website?

(from a discussion in debian-devel, where Ashish Bista from Central Department of Computer Science and Information Technology, Tribhuvan University, Nepal, was requesting for Debian CDs or DVDs) Quoting Paul Wise (p...@debian.org): > Unfortunately there don't appear to be any Debian CD/DVD vendors in > your country.

The same project works on localization of the major components of a distribution (GNOME, KDE, OO.o, Firefox, etc.). They created a dedicated distribution, meant to be distributed on one CD, and based on Debian and the Morphix installer (same technology use for DzongkhaLinux 1.0 in Bhutan). You may indeed want to get in touch with Nepalinux folks... signature.asc Description: Digital signature
