Greetings List-

I'm just curious, as I haven't seen much talk about this on any of the =
lists - how are we getting the money to host any ISO's or source code?  =
Furthermore, if we want to make high-quality discs to distribute, where =
are the funds coming from there?

Are we currently seeking a way to fund this project, are we looking for =
freebies (hosting etc.), are we going to charge a small fee for a burned =
disc... etc.?

I think it'd be good to start thinking about this while we're also =
planning the layout of the CD.  I happen to do IT financing quite often, =
so I'd be open to helping to work on a budget for this project.
