ANST-Announce - Stefan's files for November

[Mark.S Harris]

Greetings to those around the Known World,

Here is a copy of my Florilegium article for the month of November.

If you are an editor and would like to get a copy of this article
on the fifth of the month for publication, rather at the end of
the month, please let me know. If you manage a website and would
like to get the version of this article meant for web publication,
please let me know.

If you have written an article that might be of interest to others
in the Known World, I would like to consider it for the Florilegium.
These don't always need to be highly polished articles. Some class
notes written for a class you gave will sometimes work well.

I am always interested in comments or suggestions for the Florilegium.
If there is some way I can make this collection easier to use or
more useful to you, please let me know. 

Thanks.
  Stefan

A Blending of the Past and Present       

Over the past ten 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

Files that are new or have been updated are indicated by a special 
marker in the filelists at the website. In addition, the file 
-updated-files is a listing of these files in chronological order.

A copy of my complete filelist is available in most sections of the 
website. This filelist or any of my files is also available from me 
by email in either Word or text formats.

If you find a bad link or other problem with the Florilegium website, 
please let me know. Once I know about a problem I can usually fix it
that day but if no one alerts me to a problem it may be months before
I notice it myself.

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.
