Didn't we have an alug cd burning group some time ago where a group of people with broadband+burners would send disks to needy users? Or am I thinking of another lug? If not, then I can burn+post discs for people on an occaisional basis (don't want to spend a fortune on media+postage obviously) or between the aluggers we could arrange for pick ups at lug meets if people who required discs asked well in advance.

I can too. I have a USB hard drive with a bunch of distros on it.

I'm not actually sure how much need there is for this kind of service these days, what with the proliferation of broadband of late. Perhaps it's worth putting a page on the wiki offering this, and if anyone needs it, ask them to post their request to this list. Then anyone can volunteer to burn and take along to the next meet?
I'm away for the next couple of days, but I can knock up a note about it when I get back if people want. Needs a reasonably prominent note on the front page but should be easy to achieve.
