It's a good idea for him to apply to his local government, to explain
what ReactOS is, and what are its benefits, especially for a country
like Cuba.
For a start, someone spanish-speaking should exchange emails
privately with him, and send him a few CDs - with our releases, with
source code of an SVN tree, with RosBE, etc. The "ReactOS Starter
Kit". Anyone volunteers?

fast enough Internet access in Cuba to
download ReactOS from Sourceforge or our main site. His connection
only runs 8 kilobits per second,

might also be saying that he can't
access SourceForge, due to Internet censorship, though it's vague
because he seems to be using
translation software.
Cuba has very restricted Internet access because the state owns
most computers, Internet cafes are
expensive, and it's heavily censored.
Mr. Catala is asking if someone could physically mail him a ReactOS
disc, since he cannot
download and burn the discs himself.

Subject: Re: [ros-dev] FLISOL 2010
Andrew, thanks for answering my post. Sight, the only that it want
to be
the ISO of ReactOS and your withdrawal from circulation compilation
in a
CD to distribute in the FLISOL…
succeed that my country this limited in SourceForge and cannot unload
this, also it have a connection to 8K/s for which it is staies and the
discharges finish corrupt… therefore it asks that it collaborate with
crumb and send the CD postal path ( not e-mail ).
Please do bear in mind ReactOS is in ALPHA, i.e.
not suitable for
normal
use.
If you want such a CD, my advice would be to download the debug
version of
reactos from the website and source code then
burn the two files
(the ISO
and the zip file) to a CD.
ReactOS has one CD if I remember correctly, that does all
languages (If
I'm
wrong please correct me)
Also, AFAIK ReactOS has no manuals, it has SOME documentation in
the wiki,
but overall it lacks much documentation.
