Hi Matt, 
Welcome aboard!  I don't know if you were on the list earlier this week, but 
we've got a release party scheduled for May 3rd, and we're helping OLUG with 
their installfest on May 17th.   I'll have info on the Wiki page later today. 

Could you put up a couple of flyers for me if I emailed them to you?  If you 
are interested, please send me you address off-list to 
dthacker at bluestrain.net. 

Other things you could do to help:
-Help out with the 5-A-Day Project(1)
-Help us do a "Demo Day" in Fremont
-Ask other users you've helped to join our mailing list and irc channel
-Put Ubuntu Nebraska Loco Team on your forum signature, so others will be able 
to find us. 
-Help maintain the wiki
-Moderate our Forum pages (coming soon)

Great.  I hope to see you in our irc channel at #ubuntu-us-ne on freenode and 
maybe see you at an event next month.
