Graham,

Welcome to Mageia! And greetings to Aotearoa !

I for one would love to have a Marketing specialist in this project.

This list has proven that we have a plethora of excellent artists in
Mageia. Your expertise plus Mageia artists I believe will be great.

Pretty soon there will be the announcement of Mageia wiki, where we
all can join and expose where we can help. Please make sure you join!


Salut,
Sinner
