Projects
Ubuntu off the shelf.  I received another 20 CD's from ShipIt on Wednesday, so 
I'll be donating 2 Ubuntu books and 20 Ubuntu CD's to the Omaha Public 
Library.  I'm going to try and get a picture of the Library's collections 
person accepting the donation.   

Ubuntu in the Non Profit. 
Brad is doing survey work to put together a list of apps that a non-profit 
will need in their stack.  

OLUG
The first thing we can do to help OLUG is to download, print and distribute 
flyers for the installfest.  I'd like everyone who posts flyers to put the 
location on the wiki, so we can coordinate where the flyers are going.

Your comments and questions are welcome.  Please post them to the list.
