People interested in helping out would be on the -discuss list anyway. You may want to post a synopsis of the discussion, or put all the mail messages into one (digest style) to sum up the situation for anyone interested in volunteering. - --Bruce -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFDV/nQ/TBScWXa5IgRAvcnAJ0XRfzo5ctsUiqAWu8z1G1DS5D2TgCcCtt1 /T9GwhocKCol7r7estv91oc= =Wk+j -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ gnhlug-org mailing list gnhlug-org@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-org
