I have received a number of email messages regarding the short voting time
period with correspondents mainly concerned that this will not be a long
enough period to debate the issue thoroughly first before then proceeding
to vote on it.

In deference to all of those people, I will be extending the voting period
until the 20th of January.  Officially, the period from 11th December to the
11th January will be the debating period (the RFD to use a newsgroup analogy)
and the period from 11th January to the 20th January will be the voting
period.  In reality though, if anyone feels that they have debated the issue
enough and would like to vote, then they may do so at any time (so long as
its before the 20th Jan.).

If you have missed this announcement and would like to view the proposal
to form a non-profit organisation to promote Linux then it can be
obtained from the following places:

1)  Postscript document available on Sunsite.  Placed in the Linux/Incoming
    directory on 12th December.  May be moved to another directory location.

2)  Ascii document posted to comp.os.linux.announce  - entitled 'Linux
    International proposal'

3)  If all else fails, contact me at   pdcruze@swanee.ee.uwa.edu.au 
    requesting either the ascii or postscript document (please specify).

Note: please use option 3 as a last resort.


One final note is that our network (and hence my mailbox) will be out of
action from Friday 17th Decemeber to Monday 20th December.  Please do not
vote or attempt to contact me during this period as you will receive a 
'host unreachable' message.

Regards,
Patrick D'Cruze                     pdcruze@swanee.ee.uwa.edu.au
