[Ansteorra-announce] Stefan's files for March

[Stefan li Rous]

Greetings to folks across the Known World!

Here is a copy of the this month's Florilegium article detailing what 
is new in the Florilegium this month.

I know that some of you had difficulty accessing the Florilegium a week 
ago. This was a problem with the server computer the Florilegium site 
was residing on. The server has now had a lot of software upgrades and 
it has been moved. Currently I am having some trouble with the FTP site 
I use to upload the new files to the site. Hopefully this will be fixed 
in the next few days. If you find that a file you want is not there, 
please feel free to contact me by email and I will gladly send you out 
a copy by email. Please specify if you want the text, HTML or RTF 
format.

As usual, I am always looking for additional articles, forwards of good 
email threads from lists I'm not on, or for volunteers to help edit 
files and maintain the site.

I will be camping with my barony at the next Gulf Wars in another week 
or so. Please feel free to drop by and say hi.

Stefan

A Blending of the Past and Present

Over the past fourteen years in an ongoing effort, I have been 
collecting bits of useful information from various newsgroups, mail 
lists and articles submitted to me by their authors. In order to make 
this information available to others, I have placed this information in 
a series of files I call Stefan's Florilegium.

The Florilegium is on the web at: http://www.florilegium.org

I am always interested in new articles. If you have written an article 
that would be of interest to others in the SCA, please send it to me 
for possible inclusion in the Florilegium. Contact me for more details.

I am also interested in volunteers who might be interested in helping 
me maintain the Florilegium. Everything from collecting materials, 
editing and web work is needed. Again, please contact me for more 
details.

I will be at the upcoming Gulf Wars event in Meridies this month. If 
anyone would like to discuss the Florilegium or anything else, please 
feel free to drop by my barony’s encampment (Barony of Bryn Gwlad, 
Ansteorra) and ask for me.
