Dear Bonnie,
Go for it. We can work up an S5 to do the job.
Regards,
Flint

I'd also be willing to present about an open source project called the

I'm helping develop at the Vermont Department of Taxes. Perhaps the
presentation could lead into a discussion about open source in government?
FYI: I'm on the board of the Champlain Valley League of Women Voters,
and they hold monthly presentations on various gov't-related topics.
"FOSS in VT Gov't" might be something they'd be interested in, though they
wouldn't know that yet. :-) I can bring it up with them at our meeting
tomorrow, as a "far-off in the future" idea (6 months or so from now?),
aiming for after we've covered a lot of early ground on our side here and
are ready to present it to a wider, less technical audience.
I think the VT Libertarians would be interested in being aware of this
effort, too: many are computer geeks and open-source proponents, and
definitely want to reduce the cost of government! I'll forward the info
to their list.
