[PL] PL2006 CD

S

Susan Bugher

If all goes well we may be able to create the PL2006CD before Christmas.
:) :) :) ISTM they'd make nice stocking stuffers. . .

Steven Burn has volunteered to create the PL2006CD and the ISO file and
I'll create the web pages etc.

I've uploaded a preliminary CD web page:

http://www.pricelesswarehome.org/2006/2006PL-CD-about.php

To date the following people have volunteered as burners (their names
are shown on the web page:

Australia: Adrian Carter
New Zealand and the South Pacific: Nicolaas Hawkins
USA: Omar Oszust
USA: REMbranded
USA and worldwide: Mark Warner

Any more volunteer burners?

Any volunteer to create a web torrent?

Any more volunteers to host the ISO? (Currently there are 5 sites.)

The plan for distribution:

1. Host sites will download first, followed by the volunteer burners who
have high speed access. CDs will be mailed ASAP to volunteer burners. If
someone volunteers to create a bit torrent they will also be given
priority access to the download.

2. When the sites hosting the ISO have uploaded the file ACF
participants will have first crack at the download.

3. The web page has email links for people who wish to request a copy of
the CD. ACF participants will also have priority for copies of the CD.
ATM the links are not "live" - when the volunteer burners have their
copies of the CD I'll create email forwarders that will send the
requests to the volunteer burners.

It would be best if my copy of the master disk could be sent to me by
snailmail - the person who may (or may not!) download the ISO for me has
priorities that frequently do not coincide with mine.

I figured that - your name is already on the list. :)

I don't know if you've looked at the web page yet, I hope you approve.
IMO the PWH email links are a big improvement => the page looks much
cleaner. Your email link will be:

mailto:p[email protected]

When I set up the email forwarders a copy of each email request will go
to you and another copy to me. That keeps your address hidden and it
will let me track the TOTAL number of requests for CDs, something we
haven't been able to do before.

Thanks. What geographic area do you want to mail to? I'll need your
email address when I set up the email forwarders - you can send that to:
mailto:[email protected]
I'll set up a torrent...

Yea! :) Your web site or ours (PWH site)? :) I know nothing about bit
torrents so please think about what I should show on the web page -
info, link etc. etc.

Presumably, then, what is forwarded to me will have a fixed "from" line -
you had better tell me (via E-Mail!) what it will be so I can authorise it
- there is a pretty stroppy whitelist-based spam-blocker on the TopNet
E-Mail server.

Nope - forwarded emails show the original "sent from" address. OTOH -
the "sent to" address will always be
"(e-mail address removed)" (makes it easy to
filter those emails into a separate folder). I can set up your forwarder
if you like and send a test email - erm. . . that probably won't work
since last time I tried I wasn't able to email you directly. I could set
up the forwarder and you could ask for emails from newsgroup
participants, especially those in your area (the area CD requests will
be coming from). Let me know if you want to give that a try.

Hi Wolfgang,

If you decide to volunteer please send the email address you want to use
(to receive forwarded requests) to mailto:[email protected] or
post a munged version of it here.

Nope. Best idea would be to send to me at

raptor740
[at]
gmail
[dot]
com

instead of my TopNet address.

No problem, send your mailing address to (e-mail address removed) and
I'll add you to the list of burners who need a copy of the CD.

I don't understand the above sentence. I need the email address where
you want to receive requests. (Requests will be automatically forwarded
to that email address.)
