Hi all!

Yes, I'm sorry. We were waiting on your answer. Some of us are very unhappy 
that nobody knows about our project, that's why I wrote now on the 
debian-publicity list.

OK, I submit the form again.

We are planning to donate monthly or quarterly via SPI's Click & Pledge, if it 
is good for you. Now, after 22 CDs the project is still in minus, I hope soon 
it will change. If you wish, we can give you a full calculation.

We will try to do our best.

Ps: "CD types" page changed, GNOME is there too.
