Hi everyone!

I'm a member of CLUG, and I recently came across a novel fundraiser which, I think, fits in with the nature of open source hackery: coffee!  Kaldi Coffee has seven different blends of coffee available in eight
different grinds and three different sizes, and over a third of the money spent will go directly to Linux Australia to keep it doing the excellent stuff it does.  You can find a brochure for this at  http://www.mabula.net/KALDI_fundraising_brochure.pdf

The problem is that they only deliver locally - that is, in Canberra.  Coffee is a universal thing, and I didn't want to exclude other LUGs from this fundraiser, so I'm looking for a person (or people) in each LUG to be a coordinator for the fundraiser.  Basically, they need to collect the orders by the 30th of November, send them to me along with money, and then receive the delivery of the combined orders from your LUG and distribute them as appropriate.  I will arrange to ship all the coffee for your LUG by the best combination of cheap, speedy and reliable.

If you're interested in helping me raise funds for Linux Australia, please contact me and we can sort out the details!

Thanks in advance,

Paul

P.S. Sorry for sending the large attachment to the committee list before.  Stupid me, I didn't realise that it was so huge.  I've done the sensible thing this time :-)
