Almost everyone their already has as many Live CDs as are of use in
one lifetime. I'm not sure showing them any more would make the
slightest bit of difference.

As you say there were some new people from Crediton who have some
less experience, they want to build a robust database server. I hope
they learnt that the version of Debian likely to be stable by the
time they use it is called Sarge, and is the current testing
version. That the new installer supports a software mirroring
install directly (even if the latest daily build is a tad buggy,
daily build are unlikely to be polished otherwise it would have been
called "release candidate 2", or even "Debian stable"), and with
some advice on building on maintaining Debian servers.

My intent was to get my hands dirty with the new installer, learn
how to set-up Debian mirrors, and misc others. Some of my goals were
achieved during the preparation of the meeting, others during.
