I have just about every Linux Format DVD from LXF20 (sometime in 2001). As I am soon to move house I want to dispose of them. Might be useful if someone wants an old distro.
Happy to bring them to the next kit meet or look out any special requirements. Otherwise I'll skip them.
Or they could go in the ALUG library? (If there is space?)
When I ran the library it was chock full of old distros that nobody ever wanted. I'm not sure if I ditched them in the end or handed them on to Wayne. Unless any of the DVD's have anything of great interest on them other than old distros then i'd ditch them, purely on the basis that most ancient distros are still available on many mirror sites.
For example you have ftp://archive.download.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/ and http://archive.debian.org/ i'm guessing most other distros will have the same.
