Hi,<br>
<br>
What kind of marketing material were you thinking about? As when
this has come up in the past at previous UDS sessions it was mooted
due to cost of printing shipping, languages available/not available
and keeping material up to date. The same could be said about the
environment about printed material, it could too also become a
negative impact on the environment.<br>
