Hi, Just wanted to ask whether someone could bring a CD(DVD?) of openSUSE 11.0 to tomorrow's meet?Terms of exchange are Cost of Media or Media provided.Thanks in advance.
and nothing for the person to take the trouble to bring you a copy?
Spreading Linux is a "Calling", not a "Career".
Yes, I am aware of it and have given CDs/DVDs, offered my time as a volunteer for FOSS events, organized forums for talks/install fests ... all gratis.
BTW, what is wrong in making a career out of it?

Arun: There is nothing wrong with that, just a choice. Two people come to mind: Bill Gates had a call to spread Windows and ended up a billionaire. Mother Teresa made a career of caring for the destitute & dying. She ended up being dead and in poverty (albeit voluntary with millions in the bank). :-)
BTW my compliments on your service to the community.
