[Ubuntu-be] Ubuntu CD's

[Bart Broeckx]

Mark,

I'll bring the package with about 100 cd's to Leuven on Thursday. I'll also
bring a bundle of Tux posters, it belongs to Guy Duportail. They where
recovered at the end of the Hardy Release Party in Amsterdam. Maybe Ivan can
ask him if he can use one or two?

Kind regards,
Bart
