hey guys

the local mailout of free install discs has been suspended till further
notice.  I have been doing it as a free community service for the last few
months, and now it is at a stage where its starting to be too big for me to
handle

yesterday we had 4 requests for ubuntu cd's to be mailed out.  for a long
time there we were averaging 1 a day, but suddenly this has shot up to 2-3 a
day.  this gets kinda expensive.

I quite enjoy doing the actual mailing, its the financial side I don't
like.  so if anyone has any suggestions on how to raise money for the
mailout I'm all ears
