[Sca-cooks] Stefan's files for June

[Mark.S Harris]

Greetings to the SCA-Cooks list,

This message originally got bounced because I sent the same message to
many of the kingdom lists as well as this list. I will try to remember
to send a copy to this list as a seperate message in the future. If I
forget and you see it on another list, please feel free to forward
it from there or email me.

Of course, if you'd rather not see this monthly article, let me know
and I will consider stopping the sending of it to this list.

Here is a copy of my Florilegium article meant for June publication.
This details what is new in the Florilegium for this month.

If you have any suggestions for new articles or there is a topic that
you would like to see addressed in the Florilegium which isn't, please
let me know. Perhaps I can find someone to write such an article, or
place it in the article suggestion list that someday will get added
to the Florilegium, or maybe I can point you to a file which you may
have simply missed in the files.

Stefan

A Blending of the Past and Present

Over the past eleven 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.
