Running a centralised shipit program would be too costly as well as requiring dedicated manpower. Instead a decentralised system like filling up a wiki page of those who have the CDs and those wanting one is more cost effective and also improves 'the social network' within the community. Also, by setting up a shipit like service, people would expect better or professional artwork on CDs and CD covers which would up the cost further. -- Regards, Nitesh Mistry | www.mistrynitesh.com PGP key id: A6FEF696 | 'geekosopher' on freenode irc pgpYsrJLJTOfW.pgp Description: PGP signature -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in

I am fine with wiki based tracking. We already have this page [0] where we used to update the CDs that we have. We can start planning something on the similar lines while designing the new website.

The thread was hijacked at your first reply itself, where OP stated why he is sad about Shipit being stopped and you posted comments. That comment itself had no relevance to the OP post. It contained * Unity v/s GNOME * Rolling release - Debian * Paid software being bad Anyway since you did not answer my questions, I conclude you gave up. -- Manish -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
