[MR] Stefan's Florilegium files for October

[Olwen the Odd]

Greetings to the Gentle Folk across the Known World, Here is a copy of my Florilegium article for October describing what is new in the Florilegium this month. If you are a newsletter editor and would like to get this monthly article several weeks in advance of my posting it to the Internet so that you have time to put it into your newsletter, please email me. If you maintain a website and would like to get the version of this article which includes the links to each file, also email me. I am always interested in new articles for the Florilegium. If you have written any articles for a local newsletter or papers for A&S contests or class handouts, please send them to me. My policy is that copyright remains with the author and I will take updates at any time. This means that you don't have to wait until you are an expert or your paper is perfect. In the meantime, the rest of us can be learning from the work you have already done. Thanks,Stefan-------A Blending of the Past and Present Over the past nineteen 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 collection 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. A&S documentation and class handouts will also often work out well.
