[ubuntu-us-in] IU LinuxFest - Conference Pack on its way!

[David Ernst]

I have an idea:  if you can fit two CD's into the same sleeve, give
them the dapper CD AND a new edgy CD.  That way you wouldn't have to
black out the version number, you could just tell people when you
handed them out that you're giving out the version that came with it
AND the newer version.  

Just a thought,

David
