Hi,
As Bryen mentions, AJ has been handling the sending out of 30.000
DVD's per year in batches of 100 or more so there's no better person
to ask ;-)
Of course we'd be happy to send the DVD's to 3 or 4 locations, if you
like - it'd be silly to send them to the USA and have you ship half of
them back to Europe or something like that. Within EU and USA,
shipping is cheap - as soon as you need an airplane, costs go up. So I
suggest setting up someone in Europe and someone in the USA at least.
Another thing. I have collected some marketing materials for inclusion
on the DVD. Including a PDF-ified version of the gnome3.org page
including the video's (and their subtitles), a collection of
posters/banners and the presentation templates as well as some
creative commons material (2 albums and the latest Blender movie
"sintel"). Took me a while to collect but you'll have about 350 MB of
additional Cool Stuff (TM) besides the awesomeness that is GNOME Shell
;-)
Cheers,
Jos

Customs will get picky if you receive 100 DVDs. They'll try to charge
taxes even if it's tagged as a donation/gift.
We need to find out how to avoid that.

Heard we will get 10.000 GNOME 3 DVDs from Novell. They'll be snail
mailed in batches of at least 100 DVDs.
Suggest:
* Filling our event boxes
* Asking/sending to our language teams
* Asking/sending to everyone on the GNOME 3.0 party page
Then update gnome.org and say that we have free DVDs and to ask at the
local GNOME group. Maybe even do a press release.
Just have to ensure we distribute first, then announce... and hopefully
correctly estimate the needed amounts.
Sounds like a good idea?
