If my memory is correct, the CDs were bought by a Belgian company that
used a German CD factory to make them, and driving to Germany was the
only way to get the CDs done in time for the release party in
Herk-de-Stad.

I'm sure he would be happy to provide some info about what he did & how
he did it, maybe even meet some people who want to work on this.

Well, then we have at least one sponsor already!   ;-)


BTW: investigating the option of providing a localised DVD might be
useful too (it's a bit more expensive, but we can fit a lot more on
it...).
