Brett,
It might be worth having your service advertised on the debian web site
and its mirrors. I'm not sure that many people pay close attention to
this newsgroup. Most debian users I know either get their distribution
of an Infomagic release and then upgrade periodically over the net
as they feel the need, or just get the thing off the net in the first
instance.

I'm particularly interested in acquiring a Debian/Sparc distribution
on CD/Rom, and I'm considering a 1.3* i386 as well.

It's just a matter of knowing that you are offering the service.

regards
Terry
