[Seaside] help us announce esug08

[Mathieu van Echtelt]

[Apologies for multiple copies]

Hi all,

We made an email to inform potential enthusiasts about Esug'08.

(looking at the program, we think esug'08 will become very interesting)

If you know any person/mailinglist/blog you would like to inform too,
feel free and use the Esug-announcement email below. (One is in
English, the other is in Dutch)

We already had some success, e.g. the dutch rubyonrails community has
put our announcement on their website: www.rubyenrails.nl, with their
own introduction: "...if you want to see the much discussed Maglev VM
or the legendary seaside framework, go to..."

These lists/groups already received an email from us:

- EAPLS
- IvI (UvA)
- cwi-all
- IPA list
- se-world
- University Delft
- Holland open source
- Meta-user list
- Viewpoints FONC
- Rubyenrails.nl
- Xp-nl list
- Squeak list
- Weekly Squeak
- VisualWork NC list
- University Twente

Thanks,

Mathieu van Echtelt
