[H-GEN] Software Freedom Day (new thread)

[Johann Kwiatkowski]

Hi All,
             I had promised to do some artwork and printing for the  
signs and pamphlets, of which I am willing do to, I have just been  
held up with work and my wife was in hospital for over a week, so I  
had other things on my mind. I will put on a website late monday  
artwork for said pamphlets and posters so members can comment, and  
have them printed by friday, otherwise if other people have done  
artwork that members are happy with, I can print them out too,

cheers

Johann
