OVER 2200 DEBIAN OFFICIAL 2-CD SETS SELL IN 8 WEEKS

Since the start of the Debian Official CD program, just 8 weeks ago,
over 2200 2-CD sets have been sold. The number may well be higher, as
companies are not required to tell us about their sales. About half of
the reported sales are mail-order. Approximately US$3000 in donations
have been made so far by CD purchasers, and the checks have started to
come in from the CD vendors. A list of CD vendors can be found on our
web site, http://www.debian.org/ . Anyone can duplicate and sell the
Debian 1.3.1 Official 2-CD Set. For information, see
ftp://ftp.debian.org/OfficialCD/1.3.1 .

COMPANIES DONATE HARDWARE AND NET CONNECTIONS TO DEBIAN

Following our solicitation for hosting services, two companies have
committed to donate systems and high-bandwidth net connections to the
Debian Development. Information on the donors will appear on the Debian
web site once the systems are "on the air". Several other sites offered
to donate space on an existing system, a net connection, or mail
delivery services. All of Debian's internet services are donated to the
project, including its web sites on various continents and its 75 FTP
mirror sites.
