In a strange co-incidence I also received another email from Nigeria today
asking for financial assistance.

It was from a lady who wanted me to hold on to a few million pounds for her.
She had to escape from the country due to a set of unfortunate
circumstances. She said in return that she would give me a million pounds!
I'm still pondering it.... ;-)

If you are being serious though, there isn't really a 'pot of cash' for
people to dip into to promote open source software, but Ruben has given you
some great pointers to take away with you. If you are thinking of setting up
Nigeria's first Ubuntu LoCo then the very best of luck to you, and please
write back to us so that we know how you're getting along, so that we can
help you all we can!

Good luck.

Chris
