> A Blending of the Past and Present
>
> Over the past fifteen years in an ongoing effort, I have been  collecting
bits of useful information from various newsgroups, mail  lists and articles
submitted to me by their authors. In order to make  this information
available to others, I have placed this information in  a series of files I
call Stefan's Florilegium.
>
> The Florilegium is on the web at: http://www.florilegium.org
>
> I am always interested in new articles. If you have written an article
that would be of interest to others in the SCA, please send it to me  for
possible inclusion in the Florilegium. Contact me for more details.
>
> I am also interested in volunteers who might be interested in helping  me
maintain the Florilegium. Everything from collecting materials,  editing and
web work is needed. Again,
please contact me for more details.
>
> For those who would like to help support the Florilegium project in
another way, I have added a PayPal donation button on the top page of  the
site. Any donations, while not tax deductible, do help pay the overhead
costs of keeping the site running.
