when did i say i'd be "reconsidering my opinion" ??

all that i'm saying is that i'm disappointed in the behavior of the
people in the community, i'd never had expected mails like i've gotten
in the last days about a topic i'm not even involved with ... and be
sure you dont want to know what was written in some of them ...

multiple CDs wont be shipped through shipit simply due to costs. our
majority of users lives in areas where you neither have the bandwith to
download a DVD nor find DVD writers (or even readers)... do you really
want exclude these people from edubuntu ? 

we'll surely discuss the problem at the next conference again (as we do
at every conference) but there is no easy solution to it and i refuse to
exclude people from using edubuntu ...
