couldn't we *drop* the boxed edition? We could still sell a *manual* (could even be made for several versions, for example the same one for "11", then "12"..., and sell a "soft bounded" dvd, that is only the dvd, some stickers easy to send by mail and not too expensive.
I have no idea of the number of sold boxes. I think they make it also for marketing purposes, and actually I like the idea of the box. I know more than one contributor that started "just to have a box" and then became a faithful contributor too.
The box cost more than the dvd and we don't even sell through dealers, so no box needed, so with this system we could have new dvd each quarter?
No box needed sounds a bit strong to me. However, who would prepare the DVD's every four months? Is it really worth instead than downloading a few delta RPM's? And what about the mirrors? Would they be happy with such frequent updates? Regards, A. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
