Dear Teresa,

Your name was given to me as someone who might know who at MSU is 
interested in finding out about free software.  I'm a member of the 
Greater Lansing Linux User Group (GLLUG) and we're looking to do 
something with an audience who might find free software useful for 
Software Freedom Day, which is September 20th.  Last year we gave 
presentations and tried to publicize them, but we didn't get many 
attendees.  This year we'd like to find a group of people already 
interested in or researching free software and do something that appeals 
to them, whether that's provide information, perform demonstrations, 
help with software installation, or whatever else might be productive. 
I thought likely groups of people might be faculty and students at high 
schools, entire school districts, or faculty and students at MSU or some 
of its colleges.  If you know of any such group, would you be willing to 
direct us to them so we can determine if they have any interest?  We 
would like to make our Software Freedom Day event a lot more successful 
than it was last year, even if success is measured only by the number of 
people who attend.

Also, if you know of individuals who might be interested, feel free to 
direct them to our group.  We have meetings every Thursday night, and 
our website is at http://www.gllug.org.
