To explain this more fully with the party line: the project supports
itself via donations and selling CDs of releases. If you create DVDs
to distribute you are hurting the project by discouraging the sale of
CDs. You could volunteer to become a reseller, though (i.e. you buy a
large shipment of CDs and sell them at cost to people in your
country.)
