Hello Ben Pinson (Jean)

Thanks for your interest in Debian!

The 'Project' mailing list is intended for project-related project-wise discussions.

Nonetheless, I'll answer you here in order to facilitate things for you.

1. Do you offer any live USBs for sale?

We have a list of companies that might sell pendrives with a Debian live image preinstalled on it. However, I'm not sure the list is up-to-date. Checkout the following address:

https://www.debian.org/CD/vendors/

You can easily download an image from the address bellow and make your own live image pendrive.

https://www.debian.org/distrib/

If, instead of buying a pendrive with Debian, you would like to make a donation to the project, the instructions are at the following:

https://www.debian.org/donations

2. I've tried to join the Debian forums, but it says I'm a Spammer? Any ideas? I've tried to contact the admin, but I've gotten no response in the last 17 days.

For Debian users support, use <debian-user@lists.debian.org>.

You can also try the IRC channel #debian on irc.debian.org (irc.oftc.net).

Below, are pages with useful information about trying to get help using IRC or email:

- https://wiki.debian.org/GettingHelpOnIrc
- https://wiki.debian.org/DebianIRCChannelGuidelines
- https://www.debian.org/support

Thank you,

Jean

Cheers

Hi, Ben

first of all, this mailing list is more for the project's coordination.
Your questions will get more and better answers in debian-user (I set
the followup to there).

Now to your questions:

1.
Do you offer any live USBs for sale?

See https://www.debian.org/distrib/. Also, see https://www.debian.org/CD/vendors/.

2.
I've tried to join the Debian forums, but it says I'm a Spammer? Any ideas? I've tried to contact the admin, but I've gotten no response in the last 17 days.

It would be helpful if you said which forum you tried to join and how.

(BTW: your mail provider will also say that I'm a spammer and bounce
my mail, but perhaps you see the answer to the list).

Cheers
