Hi everyone, Just a quick heads up to say I've put in this request. I'm taking care of distribution again this time around, I'll be able to start shipping them out once they arrive, but the release is still a week away, then they need to be printed, shipped overseas...
If you would like some DVDs, please contact me at lyz at ubuntu.com with your name, address and purpose for request (Need some for your school or library? Handing out at a small event?). If you are in the same area as someone else in the team who needs CDs please try to request them together as I'm paying for these shipping costs out of pocket and it's cheaper to send larger packages than several small ones. This is the only shipment the team gets per cycle, so please don't waste these DVDs and request only a limited number to suit your needs! Follow these tips to help stretch our supply: 1. At tech events, inform (maybe hand out cards with instructions?) users that they can download and burn an ISO: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto 2. Burn ISOs as they wait! Bring along some blank DVDs and a system that can burn a DVD at the event and give them a fresh copy 3. For handing out at other events, use the pressed DVDs as display copies and use our CD sleeves for burned copies: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam/Projects/CDSleeves 4. For installs and demos at events, try using a USB stick NOTE: For larger conferences please contact me with details so we can request an https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuAtConferences conference pack plus DVDs AT LEAST 6 weeks prior to the event. I will update information to the bottom of https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam/Projects/QuantalRelease once I start shipping them so everyone will be able to keep track of the number of DVDs still available. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Jono Bacon <[email protected]> Date: Wed, Oct 10, 2012 at 6:13 PM Subject: DVDs For LoCo Teams To: "Ubuntu local community team (LoCo) contacts" <[email protected]> Hi All, Just a quick note that approved teams can find out how to order your Ubuntu 12.10 DVDs at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoGettingCds.
