OK, a start is the "Other resources" page on the Mandrake Linux site http://www.mandrakelinux.com/en/others.php3 which is of course available in the different languages. You can write to an address and your site will be listed there. Of course the TWiki is already listed there. Then they have a list of links on the greeting page which is displayed as standard "Home" in the browser. This list should be language dependent (according to the locales setting) and it should be updated. Another thing is sponsoring of events. Nothing big, but sometimes really efficient. Example: I get a mail of a German user who puts up a LAN party. Gamers, stale coke, cold pizza, all the bells&whistles. They ask for things like T-Shirts, a PowerPack or something Mandrake could give. Even inviting me to do a demo in the lobby. But such things are out of the question at the moment. Lets do our best and hope for the worst - or was it the other way round? wobo
