[Artemisia] Fw: Stefan's Florilegium article for July

[Caointiarn]

Greetings to the Gentles across the Known World,

Here is a copy of my Florilegium article for July, detailing what is
new in the Florilegium this month.

If you are thinking of making the pilgrimage to Pennsic next month,  you 
might want to take a look through the files in the PENNSIC and  the 
SCA-CAMPING sections. There are a number of files there from camp 
sanitation to showers to various Pennsic history stories which can  make 
your trip more enjoyable.

A Blending of the Past and Present

Over the past sixteen 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.
