Subject: Logo contest for Picn*x14 (Linux 14th anniversary picnic & BBQ) -- also, problem sending email to BUUG via form


Hi there!  I had trouble sending a short note to the BUUG via the
"Contact Us" form (http://www.weak.org/buug/mail.html).  It resulted in
a 'permission denied' when submitting to 'mail.cgi'.

Anyway, here's the long version. :^)  I was hoping someone could pass this
on to the other BUUG members, perhaps via the 'buug at weak.org' mailing list,
if that'd be appropriate?

Thanks!!!

This August marks the 14th birthday of the Linux kernel, and the
local Linux community is once again throwing a picnic and barbecue to
celebrate!

Picn*x14 will be held on Sunday, August 14th at the Baylands Park in
Sunnyvale, Calif.  The picnic is a free, family-friendly event.

The event coordinators are holding a logo creation contest.
The chosen artwork will appear on the official Linux anniversary picnic
website, on flyers for the event and on t-shirts given out during the
