If that's true I believe you do qualify for membership. Have you tried applying? > Since it appears that Cononical is out of the free CD business What they've said is not that they will stop sending free CDs, but that they will try to concentrate this effort sending them to those who really need them; that sounds quite reasonable to me. Also, Canonical has no obligation at all to give us CDs for free, IMHO we should be grateful that they have been doing so. > I believe I am also. It's your decision, but it's really sad if choose to stop contributing (if that's what you mean - I'm not sure I fully understand your last sentence) to a project only based on the associated company's decision possibly not to give you free CDs anymore. If you allow me to say so, I'd suggest you take some time to think about the situation and decide your future involvement taking into account more than just the availability of free CDs.
