Filling Software Freedom day "Sugar on a Stick" CD & "Edubuntu 12.04.3 + OpenDisc 12.09" DVD
For Software Freedom Day, I try to fill the media we write to give away For "Sugar on a Stick" Fedora-Live-SoaS-i686-19-1, the CD will have 5-6Mb left, not enough for very much, but text and links in the Readme are small. I've assumed this CD may interest people with younger children. Suggestions are welcome. The DVD will be similar, I'll aim to fill it, maybe removing "Battle of Wesnoth" from the OpenDisc collection for it's 300Mb, but suggestions for links and text would be welcome. ../Win32-SFD-2013/ total 96M 1.8M Sep 10 21:37 Antikythera.045.pr 24M Sep 6 2012 BYOB 3.1.1 Setup.exe 16M Sep 6 2012 Pingus-0.7.6.exe 2.4M Sep 6 2012 pyglet-1.1.4.msi 20M Sep 9 08:43 python-3.3.2.msi 1.5K Sep 10 23:11 ReadMe.txt 34M Sep 10 00:23 ScratchInstaller1.4.exe du -sh .. 694M .. --Current ReadMe.txt-- This CD boots Sugar on a Stick, version 9 Avocado http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_on_a_Stick (Fedora-Live-SoaS-i686-19-1) The directory Win32-SFD-2013 contains other Free Software which is not part of Sugar on a Stick ==Windows installers in this directory== Antikythera.045.pr ameso — The Antikythera Mechanism on Squeak EToys http://www.spinellis.gr/sw/ameso/ EToys is an application on Sugar, but can be downloaded for Linux and Windows.

Hi Rodney, Good on you for making the SFD "Sugar on a Stick" etc CDs & DVDs. Any cost involved please let me know so I can reimburse you. You need a hand in burning the CD/DVD? How many you intend to make? Cheers, Wen On Wed, Sep 11, 2013 at 8:57 AM, Lev Lafayette <lev@levlafayette.com> wrote:

I currently have ~16 CDs of "Sugar on a Stick" Fedora-Live-SoaS-i686-19-1 burnt and ~10 of OpenDisc.12.09_Edubuntu-12.04.03 DVDs burnt Battle of Wesnoth didn't make the cut, ... I think there is < 10Mb free on the DVD I have labels to print on the CD/DVDs in SVG.

From what Tony said, the 16 CDs should be enough, though it is running Fedora after all. I think it shouldn't be to hard to burn up to 50 DVDs here, so I should be Ok. More generally how useful are media for people? Edubuntu 12.04.03 gives a current LTS Ubuntu with LibreOffice etc installed. A similarly well populated Fedora iso would be worth distributing.
Cheers, Wen
