And they're off - quantal ubuntu dvds to regional contacts

The parcels with the ubuntu dvds to the regional contacts are on their way. Thanks to shipit for using the magic words "not for resale"  and "promotional material" which made the parcel fly through without customs slowing things down. Queery already has the Jo'burg and Pretoria dvds. This helped as it saved me postage for 3 parcels. So, regional contacts of ubuntu-za, it's over to you now.
