There will also be lots of Swiss Remix DVDs available from /ch/open. Ask 
Matthias Stürmer if in doubt. Visvanath also has some which he meant for 
Software Freedom Day tomorrow in Winterthur, but has not found a single 
helper so far, so he will probably have to leave it.

The Swiss Remix is only 8.04 so if you use it for installation it will 
update on the internet to 8.04.1 with several hundred MB. It has the KDE 
and Edubuntu programs on board (as well as lots of content in several 
languages) and is easily switched to Kubuntu or Xubuntu.

I have found it very useful to print out the following leaflet and hand 
out together with the DVD:

The three A4 pages print nicely in "Brochure"-mode which most printers 
support (reduced 71%, rotated 90°, double-sided, folded once). Silvan, 
do you think you could print out a few?

Have a good event, Theo
