Right, that page needs to be removed as soon as possible, because it is 
totally old and outdated from a process point of view.

We are trying to follow this model:

FAMSCo allocates budget, and the event organizer takes care of the rest. 
In some cases, we have local leaders in place who help with efficiency 
by generating a bunch of swag locally and then redistributing it later 
on.

The best thing that you can do is think about how many Live CDs or DVDs 
you would like, and contact one or two local production companies to you 
for quotes, and then let us know what you hear back, so we can factor 
that into the budget request.

For India, I would highly recommend contacting Sankarshan and Rahul for 
local help in mass-producing CDs and DVDs.  There is a fund of money set 
aside specifically for that purpose in India, and they might be able to 
make it trivially easy for you to get stuff.

I've cc'd them.
