Hi,
I’m an IT manager.
I am just wondering why you do not have a DVD distribution. [I know about
workarounds]
Could you do something about that, it would be really helpful and handy?
FreeBSD per se does not have any distribution.
FreeBSD only puts out the ISO-s that are available free on
the main or one of the mirror sites.
There are some companies that pick up the ISO images and make
a distribution. That is permitted under the FreeBSD license.
Usually they sell it for a bit over cost and include a printed
version of the Handbook. Most of them contribute a portion of
their receipts back to the FreeBSD foundation to help in development.
So, either you can convince one of the packaging companies - they are
listed in the web site - to make a DVD distibution or you can start
doing it and selling it yourself.

Thanks a lot.

Actually FreeBSD has DVD distribution. I think, I saw on the internet
that somebody in Germany was selling FreeBSD DVDs.
There are lots of Germans on this mailing list so they might give you
better answer.
