Cool. Amazing! > > I made a video to show some of the best moments[1] Thanks for your efforts in capturing,compiling & uploading the video & photos too. At my end, [i.e. Mumbai,India] video is buffering a lot if I play via web browser using VLC. [over 400mbps+ internet connection of major ISP in India] Probably because the server don't have replica in Asia/Europe or OSPF & caching isn't happened/happening yet in between. :-) I downloaded the video & it's playing without any issue. ^_^ Pls upload the video on Debian servers in Europe if possible. > > This email is also a support request for reimbursement for the cost I > had with the shirts, if possible. > > A Cuban could not pay $8 or $5 as I had thought for the shirt.

I hope they can receive DVD's of latest Debian release via postal service from South American countries.
