First of all, apologies to Maria for spelling her name wrong in my reply, I have obviously been playing too many video games in my time. As for popey's and Jan's responses to the issue, yes it may seem like the request is huge and completely unneccessary however with around 300 discs, we will only be catering for 1% of the attendees of the event and I'm sure as anything hoping that we can at least get an extra 50 community members out of the 300 or so people that we manage to talk to regarding Ubuntu and eventually help by giving them a professional looking disc. In reality it matters not whether or not your status is "official" when both official and unofficial LoCos have the drive to build up their communities and to help spread a good word about their favourite distribution to people who are interested in technology.
