[wplug-plan] PR idea WAS Re: Pitt/CMU Spring Semester

[Beth Lynn]

Hello,

Brian - I have cc-ed the planning list so we can get some more volunteers 
and ideas on this. Truthfully I have a lot going on for the first two 
weeks of January so I hope that someone else can take leadership of this.

It would be difficult to pull something off on that short of a time-table
at Pitt. Since it's been awhile since I graduated, I'm not sure who is 
still around that I could ask for a free table. I think the tables at the 
Student Union would not be free.

CMU's semester starts a little later and I can get a free table at the 
University Center.

We don't currently have any stickers or buttons. These would be hard to 
mass-produce on this sort of time-table.

What we do have is lots of media... We could burn the OpenCD and Knoppix 
and whatnot.

Thanks,
Beth Lynn
