Re: Would you order a free CD?

The download is small. The release cycle is short. I would actaully rather see an update notifier, to notify the user when a new version has come out, and maybe even an automatic updater.

Re: Would you order a free CD?

I'd rather distribute them CDs from church to church - here in Germany we have a lot of contacts to other churches in our area and I guess they'd all be interested in such a project and would probably re-distribute them CDs.

If there was a downloadable .iso and a label to go along with it, it would certainly help when talking to different Christian bookstores as well and getting the word out for openlp.

 

Re: Would you order a free CD?

I do have a preliminary ISO, but I'm waiting for the 1.0.1 release before uploading the ISO. The image contains, amongst other things, OpenOffice.org and Audacity.

The one thing I don't have is a label Undecided

Yeah, Guys it seems to me that from the current response so far that you would be better off without the CD - looks to me like the level of interest is low and it may take some time/effort that might be better spent elsewhwere. I think OpenLP is on the right track with using downloads as you do now. However the idea of using an automatic updater is worth looking at.

Bring on 1.01 (and 2.0) Smile

Re: Would you order a free CD?

I too would prefer a downloadable iso image if anything, for most it should be no harder than the present application file download.

With respect though, I have to say that I would much prefer a bit better support help. Yes I know everyone is very busy, I too have a life to live and a business/family to support, but one question I asked a while back got no decent response at all and I would not have thought it was a hard question either.

Everyone has done great work on this project, but communication counts just as much.

Hi Paul,

I have searched the forums and replied to the forum post which I think you're talking about.
