Just send them an email and tell them what you want. That simple. I chose to skip 2.2.8 ang get the rest from there on. Reminder: 2.2.8 is last from 2.X branch 3.0 first from 3.X 3.1(? or was it 3.0.1?) second release from the 3.X branch > The response I got seemed to indicate that there was (supposedly) some > sort of "card" in my 2.2.7 package (which there wasn't).

This meant you will get 2.2.8, NOT the first release of 3.X and from there on you will continue to get ALL CDs from the 3.X branch. They are doing this (with the first version of 3.X) because the next release will be shortly after, I think a month or two. They figure that many people may not want to get two CD sets so close by.
