A new structure might help. Here's a proposal. We can introduce a
thing called "Free Media Program" and under this program we can
distribute DVD and other medias to people who apply for them. Names of
all "Free Media Person"(from now FMP) will be listed on OpenSUSE
website (wiki) for general people to find out. Each "FMP" will be
given a set of DVD medias. People finding the "FMP" for their locality
will visit him/her and will ask for DVD medias. The "FMP" then will
collect a DVD replacement from the person and will give him a "copy"
of the DVD. This way individual need can be satisfied.

As for the events, DVD is not everything. Events require banners
(atleast designs for such should be provided), batches and other swags
(Like T-Shirts for main organizers sent in an Event Box), some amount
of financial help and speakers. In case of Fedora, financial help is
provided to a selected set of ambassadors, who represent a particular
region on earth. The steering committee is formed of such people.
"They don't have any country leader system for a particular country".
As for OpenSUSE it now depends on us whether we will implement a
country based system or a region based system. As far as speakers are
concerned a list should be maintained.

Any ways I am always ready for any charge of maintaining DVDs for my region :)
