Too true! I hope the forthcoming cdimage website will solve at least part of the problem. However, IMHO there's still a problem with the link to cdimage on <http://www.debian.org/distrib/vendors> - an unexperienced user like the one whose mail you forwarded will certainly not follow a link in the sentence To make it easier for CD vendors to provide a high quality disk we provide Official CD images for them. simply because he's not a vendor. (Even /I/ only followed it after searching elsewhere for a long time when I first downloaded Debian CDs.) There should be something like If you want to buy Debian on CD, see below. If you want to download CD images to write to CD-R yourself, see the cdimage.debian.org site. FWIW, maybe it is not even a good idea to separate the list of CD vendors (on www.d.o) from the rest of the CD information (on cdimage.d.o)? That may make sense from an organizational point of view, but it is less user-friendly. If the vendor list were added to the cdimage website, the "Debian on CD" link on <http://www.debian.org/> could point directly to cdimage. Cheers, Richard PS: I've updated the page design of <http://cdimage.debian.org/~atterer/> and added a navigation bar that somewhat resembles the one on www.debian.org. I can't use magenta because that colour is trademarked in Germany! :) -- __ _ |_) /| Richard Atterer | CS student at the Technische | GnuPG key: | \/¯| http://atterer.net | Universität München, Germany | 0x888354F7 ¯ ´` ¯
