form robbers :)
by Aaron Cannon 23 Feb '05

I broke the form from the Russian site. Well, not entirely. It redirects them to the Gutenberg home page. If they really want to get one, they can go there, read the CD Project page, and refill-out the form. Thanks to everyone who is helping with the massive queue.

by Aaron Cannon 12 Feb '05

12 Feb '05

One of our readers from India would like 7 CDs. I guess there's a big group of students who each want one. He gave the first two we sent away. If anyone is interested in fulfilling this one, let me know and I'll send you the address. His message follows: >my friends love the disk so much that they can sell themself to purchase >it.they would have love to donate to gutenberg but they are currently >students like me.i would like to have about 7 recent cds. -- E-mail: cannona(a)fireantproductions.com Skype: cannona MSN Messenger: cannona(a)hotmail.com (Do not send E-mail to the hotmail address.)

Any Canadian volunteers?
by John Hagerson 08 Feb '05

08 Feb '05

I have a Canadian request that has only a first name. Canada Post won't accept anything from the US without both first and last names. However, if there's someone within Canada, then it wouldn't be a problem. I tried to contact this person and request his last name, but he has not responded. Thank you. John Hagerson

by John Hagerson 03 Feb '05

03 Feb '05

If anyone is looking for a particular way to help address our current backlog and you would like to duplicate bulk copies of the DVD, please send them to me and I would be happy to mail them out. This is probably most useful to the members of our team in the U.S. If you want to duplicate bulk quantities of our discs, please send me e-mail off the list. John Hagerson

I thought you all might be interested in seeing this. I believe that there shouldn't be a problem with his request, but I'll wait to hear from Greg before replying. As for the 100 dvds, I've got a stack here that I can send.
