 our most important task at the mean time it to introduce GNU/Linux, specially Ubuntu to the maximum number possible of people around us by distributing the Ubuntu master CDs which i know that it costs us a bit of taxes in Egypt but we shall afford it as it is very catchy to supply original CDs to a market like Egypt where it is impossible to find originals. so the first goal is enlarging the community.  Our most important task at the current time is to introduce GNU/Linux, specifically Ubuntu to the as many people as possible in the Egyptian community. We will achieve this by distributing large amounts of Ubuntu master CDs. This will cost money due to Egyptian taxes, but will help market Ubuntu here since has very few original CD's in the market.
