I would disagree with that.  Sure, there might be newer versions of the
software out there, but the software itself is not 'obsolete'.  We shouldn't
be so addicted to the new hotness to discard something that's working perfectly.

And upgrades are free anyway - I always mention that when talking about the
software on Open CDs.

If it comes to something like Ubuntu CDs, if we pick an LTS release print
enough to last until the next LTS release then this is probably actually
cheaper and more sensible than dumping a bunch of old CDs every six months.

I've got the info from my CD printing friend, I just have to wade through it
and do the calculations.

Have fun,

Paul
