 Our most important task at the current time is to introduce GNU/Linux, specifically Ubuntu to the as many people as possible in the Egyptian community. We will achieve this by distributing large amounts of Ubuntu master CDs. This will cost money due to Egyptian taxes, but will help market Ubuntu here since has very few original CD's in the market.
