I haven't seen any follow up responses here.  When is the deadline again?

Hi again :-)

So, the idea is to fill the content of a half page with whatever we want.
I haven't though it through really, I wanted to have you guys opinion
first.
I have the requirements for the final file that needs to be sent but so
far that's it.
My general idea what to put some kind of 'advertising' (may not be the
best word but well) about the Foundation and GNOME with maybe a link to
the Friends of GNOME page or something.
To be honest I'm sure there are people way more qualified in 'marketing'
this than me; so anything is opened :)

Note that it's not a _big_ thing, BSD Mag is a freely downloadable monthly
magazine but I think it'd be nice to have some GNOME exposure in a BSD
specific publication.
