Other than saying that the subs last for a year, I can't see anything
date specific on the flyer. As they go, it does actually give quite a
good amount of information in a short space.

You could run a competition on the website and in LXF & LU with the
winner getting a sub to a Linux mag of his/her choice and a years free
membership to FSFE-xx (xx == country). The big stipulation would be that
all entries have to be from an free piece of software (like OOo or
Scribus). PDFs not accepted as they can be generated from anything ;-)

Roughly how many membership and how many info leaflets do you want
running off for the 16th and am I better off posting them to someone who
is definately going (I may not be able to make it - I won't know
properly until mid next week)
