Re: Release 4.5 apparently not available at some EU shops

The orders page says:

    Our products are also available at many stores around the
    world. Typically, these stores will have the current release and
    accept pre-orders for the next release, but their stock of older
    releases will vary greatly. The OpenBSD project does not keep track of
    which store has which releases or items in stock. If you see a store
    on this list which is not stocking either the current or next release,
    or has other problems, please inform [email protected] so that other
    customers won't run into the same difficulties.

The problem is what you have done is to simple check their web pages.
You have not actually contacted them to be certain.  Some of these
stores don't have the best web presence, but if I followed this
un-verified information you provide and delete them from the list, I
am wiping them out of selling OpenBSD.

So I will do nothing, until people I am told for certain.
