FreeMedia and spread CD/DVD on events have different goals.
In my opinion FreeMedia is for people who dont have a chance to get Fedora
over other channels - mostly they really want Fedora.
On events, the goal is bring people to use/try Fedora.
And they who want the CD/DVD, want it because they like the Artwork or are to
lazy to download and burn Fedora.
Does everyone refer to every household in Germany?
Surely not - round about 70% of all households (destat) - but the barrier to
get Fedora is low(free Broadband in Libraries).
With more of 5 events in Germany i can say - yes we need CD/DVD on events -
but if we must produce them localy then we must sell them and then the people
will not pay 1 € - for the DVD. So the marketing effect with dvd´s is gone. I
look forward to see how LiveCD will work on events this year.
Thanks for the feedback!
