=== DVD Burning ===
 
−
Requirements:
 
−
* Burn onto a DVD
 
−
* Graphics to be printed onto the other side with a suitable logo and contents. A simple one colour print run will be sufficient.
 
−
* Target print run of at least 100. If budget permits, 250 would be better. It would be good to give one to all local delegates who want one.
 
−
 
 
−
Timeline:
 
−
* We need to know when we need to hand over the ISO image so that it can be burned.
 
−
* The more time we have, the more testing we can do on the image and the more polished it will be.
 
−
** We can hand the image over on Tuesday 23 September, but would prefer if we had till Thursday 2 October.
