I'm working with Mandrake and hopefully Bwrdd yr Iaith, on an 
information strategy for media, organisations, politicians, etc If 
anyone has ideas, and addresses that would be useful, please let me 
know. I'm hoping to revamp Meddal, write a press release and a user 
friendly leaflet on Mandrake this weekend... so your contributions would 
be most welcome. The more information we get out on Welsh Linux the more 
pressure on MS and on ByI not to give them any money, not that y Bwrdd 
have got that kind of money anyway.

BTW Pcworld have stopped selling Mandrake... I'd thought of persuading 
them to do a high profile launch at their Bangor store. A well...

Diolch yn fawr, Rhos
