I didn't know that CentOS could answer to such request. The only linux distribution that can send official discs by mail/post is .. Ubuntu ... and i don't think Mark is the new CentOS owner ... :o) Maybe it's time to discuss (i don't know if i'm authorized too though) it seriously here ... When we prepared the Fosdem, no 'budget' was allowed to prepare the booth ... on which we 'sold' CentOS T-Shirts, mugs and CD/DVD sets to people visiting the centos booth. This specific answer about receiving free 'boxes' is quite interesting and can be used to discuss it : Should we have to answer him something like : "sorry, we can only sell you nice printed CDs sets or you can download/burn them for free yourself ..." ? Ideas welcome ...
