Greetings to the Gentles of the SCA-Cooks list,
Here is a copy of my Florilegium article detailing what is new in the
Florilegium for April.
If you or someone you know has written a good article on any aspect
of the Middle Ages or life in the SCA, please send a copy to me for
possible inclusion in the Florilegium. The copyright remains with the
author and I will take updates or removal requests at any time.
I am also looking for volunteers to help me save and edit the best
information that gets posted to the hundreds of public medieval mail
lists. It is impossible for me to keep up more than a few and there
is a lot of good, useful info that is posted out there. It is a shame
that it gets seen by only the few people on those lists at that time.
I'd like this wonderful information available to more people.
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.
