Getting Ubuntu CDs for LoCo Teams
So, you awesome LoCo teams want to get your hands on some free Ubuntu CDs to distribute in your area? No problem. This page will tell you how to get hold of CDs.
Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy CDs
Free Gutsy CDs are available for all APPROVED LoCo teams. We will send you a prepared selection of CDs that form the following mix:
Ubuntu: PC: 200, AMD64: 25
Kubuntu: PC: 30, AMD64: 15
Edubuntu: PC: 30
Please note, we can't allow you to add or remove from this mix - this is a pre-prepared selection and cannot be adjusted.
How to get your Gutsy CDs
To get your Gutsy CDs you must first ensure you are an approved team, and the Team Contact should make the request for the CDs.
To get them, send an email to info@shipit.ubuntu.com with the subject of Request For Gutsy CDs: <team name> (e.g. Request For Gutsy CDs: ubuntu-au). You must use that subject format to ensure we pick up on the email. The email must contain all of the following details:
- Name
- Street Address (do not include a POBOX - it must be a real address) - include your post/zip code!!
- Full International Phone number (including country code)
The team contact must request the CDs, but it is fine to get the CDs sent to another member of the team if needed.
Each team can have a maximum of one box of CDs.
Orders should be preferably placed before October 18th 2007 to ensure delivery within two weeks after the Gutsy release date. Any later orders will have an estimated two week delay before they arrive.
Before you submit the email...
Ensure you are an approved team - see the LoCoTeamList to see.
- Ensure the Team Contact requests the CDs.
- Check you have included the stand subject line, as shown above.
- Ensure you have included all of the requested information in the email.
