Good luck :-) John <div>On 9/12/05, <a href="mailto:flint@flint.com">flint@flint.com</a> <<a href="mailto:flint@flint.com">flint@flint.com</a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> Dear John, Good point. The critical element is that the Ubuntu work become part of the circulation, get a catalog number and join the other important literary works. Giving out CD's is one thing. Getting institutionalized, for good or for ill, is another. Anyway it is not yet a done deal, so keep your fingers crossed. Once the Mt. Ranier public library catalogs and shelves the Ubuntu work, my next stop is the U.S. Library of Congress... Wish us luck!
