[SC.LUG] [FSF] Free Software Action Alert!

[Simon Ward]

The European elections are coming up:  On 4th June we vote for
candidate MEPs, and you can help raise awareness of free software among
them by contacting them and asking them to show their support by signing
the Free Software Pact[1].

The UK action was started by Manchester Free Software.  On the wiki
page[2] you will find links to background information, candidate contact
information, and a sample letter that covers off the benefits of free
software and the threats it faces.

Please find the announcement from the FSF attached.

simple system that works.—John Gall
