[Ansteorra-announce] Stefan's Florilegium files for June

[Stefan li Rous]

Greetings to the Gentles of the Known World,

Here is a copy of my Florilegium article for June, detailing what is 
new in the Florilegium this month.

If you are on multiple kingdom lists, and don't see this message on one 
of them, please let me know. This message is supposed to get posted on 
all kingdom lists by myself or one of my representatives. But sometimes 
email addresses change or folks drop out of the SCA for awhile without 
telling me.

I'm not sure if I will make it to Pennsic this year as I'm still 
looking for a job in the Austin area after getting laid off in December 
as a circuit board designer. My resume can be found at: 
http://www.florilegium.org/msharris. If anyone has any referrals or 
suggestions, I would appreciate hearing them.

Thanks,
   Stefan

A Blending of the Past and Present

Over the past sixteen 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.

For those who would like to help support the Florilegium project in 
another way, I have added a PayPal donation button on the top page of 
the site. Any donations, while not tax deductible, do help pay the 
overhead costs of keeping the site running.
