Request for 7.0 full source on DVDs: msg#00028

Subject: Request for 7.0 full source on DVDs


Hi,
I've got a problem with downloading the sources. I live in a rural region
with a poor quality telephone landline, so instead I have a direct
satellite broadband connection. It is fairly nominal broadband though,
512K download, 64K upload, but it is very expensive and I am on an account
that is capped at 512MB downoad per month, then it drops down to about 33K
-- yes, about half of dialup.

This poses a real problem for me to obtain all the sources.

What I would like to request is that when 7.0 is released, could I
purchase all the sources on DVDs? ...however many it takes. The cost is
not important, any suitable fee for the media, postage and time taken to
do the burn -- plus I'll pay a bit extra as donation!

One problem I had with the v6 source repositories was they are not
complete, and the original URLs were not always correct either.

What would be the best is if I could have DVDs with *all* the sources,
such as the content of your own download directory Rene :-)

Now that I've raised this, probably there will be others saying
"me too!"

Regards,
Barry Kauler
