Hi everyone,
it has been a little quiet on this list regarding actual FSF Europe work. The FSF Europe started working officially on March 10th, 2001, but a lot of things (paperwork not being the least time-consuming part) needed to be done and things look very good right now. We're almost there that "normal" work can begin and then you should hear a lot more on this list.
In fact I taking up normal work is the reason for this mail. The FSF Europe plans to present itself to the press and the "non-community" world on the LinuxTag 2001 in Germany (http://www.linuxtag.org/) and the organization is donating a normal-sized booth there for the FSF Europe.
But a booth requires work and (extremely important) volunteers to man this booth, because nothing looks worse than an empty booth. So we are looking for volunteers willing to man the FSF Europe booth during the LinuxTag 2001. The perfect case would be to have 2-3 people there at all time and if you want to help the FSF Europe, this would be a good place to start.
We are very glad that Matthias Borges emhabe@web.de has volunteered to coordinate the booth and the volunteers and everyone interested in participating should contact mailto:emhabe@web.de.
I hope you all had a nice Easter weekend,
regards, Georg Greve Free Software Foundation Europe
