Couldn't the number of media be produced according to the upcoming
events in Europe ?

I was thinking of about 250-300 give away livecds for the upcoming
French Install Party (22th June) and for the Rencontres Mondiales du
Logiciel Libre (Worldwide FOSS Meetings) in Mont-de-Marsan in July
(about 3 000 attendees each year).
Is it doable that they be available before the 22nd of June (I guess
this is too close a date...) :/
