Clear message

So, you awesome LoCo teams want to get your hands on some free Ubuntu CDs to distribute in your area? No problem. This page will tell you how to get hold of CDs.

Ubuntu 6.04 LTS Dapper CDs

You can get Dapper CDs from ShipIt by visiting https://shipit.ubuntu.com

Ubuntu 6.10 Edgy CDs

Free Edgy CDs are available for all approved LoCo teams. We will send you a prepared selection of CDs that form the following mix:

  • Ubuntu: PC: 300, AMD64: 50

  • Kubuntu: PC: 75, AMD64: 25

  • Edubuntu: PC: 50

Please note, we can't allow you to add or remove from this mix - this is a pre-prepared selection and cannot be adjusted.

How to get your Edgy CDs

To get your Edgy CDs you must first ensure you are an approved team, and the Team Contact should make the request for the CDs.

To get them, send an email to info@shipit.ubuntu.com with the subject of Request For Edgy CDs: <team name> (e.g. Request For Edgy CDs: ubuntu-au). You must use that subject format to ensure we pick up on the email. The email must contain all of the following details:

  • Name
  • Street Address (do not include a POBOX - it must be a real address)
  • Full International Phone number (including country code)

The team contact must request the CDs, but it is fine to get the CDs sent to another member of the team if needed.

Each team can have a maximum of one box of CDs.

Orders should be preferably placed before October 26th 2006 to ensure delivery within two weeks after the Edgy release date. Any later orders will have an estimated two week delay before they arrive.

Before you submit the email...

  • Ensure you are an approved team - see the LoCoTeamList to see.

  • Ensure the Team Contact requests the CDs.
  • Check you have included the stand subject line, as shown above.
  • Ensure you have included all of the requested information in the email.
