Subject: Press Release: Open Source Writer's Group Logo Contest

June 24, 1999 - The Open Source Writer's Group is calling for
submissions for a mascot or logo to represent the OSWG.  The OSWG will
post submitted designs to their Web site to allow the Open Source
Community to vote on their favorite design. 

All artwork should be generated with Open Source tools and subject to
an Open Source license. For more information on the contest visit the
OSWG Web site at: http://www.linuxchix.org/techwriters

The Open Source Writers Group is a project designed to match writers,
editors, translators and proofreaders with Open Source projects in need
of documentation. Deb Richardson, the project's coordinator and founder,
saw a need in the Open Source Community for user-friendly documentation
for Open Source software and decided to try to fulfil that need.

The OSWG is open to writers and editors of all skill levels. Anyone with
a desire to assist Open Source projects by supplying or improving
documentation is welcome to join. Any project with an Open Source
license looking for help with documentation is encouraged to contact the
OSWG.

The Open Source Writers Group is open to any non-commercial Open Source
project, and is not limited to any one operating system. Anyone
interested in working with the OSWG should contact Deb Richardson with
the following information:
