Looks like we qualified.  A couple of things I need your help for:

[snip]
- Add an O'Reilly Banner to your web site from our UG page:
http://ug.oreilly.com/ If you don't have a web site, please post
O'Reilly information in your newsletters or mailing lists.

- Encourage your members to review our books and post the reviews on
your site or discussion lists, in your newsletters, or at any online
book review site such as Amazon, Slashdot, Barnes & Noble, or oreilly.com
--making sure you send me a copy too. For book review suggestions
go to: http://ug.oreilly.com/bookreviews.html
[/snip]

Can somebody take care of the first item?

Thank you for registering for the O'Reilly User Group Program.

Welcome!

Here are details about the program you should know--PLEASE READ:

O'Reilly offers free review copies of our books. As the group rep, you
may request a copy for review in your newsletter, web site, blog, mail
ing list, or for your group library. Requests for review copies must be
submitted by you, as the contact for your group. If you wish for the
review copy to be shipped to another group member, please supply the
name, address, and phone number of that member for shipment.  If a
review of a book has been written, please forward a copy to me. We are
also encouraging user group members to post reviews to sites such as
Amazon, Slashdot, and oreilly.com. For current user group info, graphics,
and book review information please go to:
http://ug.oreilly.com/

Please add your group to our User Group Wiki:
http://wiki.oreillynet.com/usergroups/index.cgi

The UG wiki is password protected, please use the following:
username: usergroups
Password: dig0/gel

Your group members receive a 35% discount on O'Reilly, No Starch,
PC Publishing, Pragmatic Bookshelf, Rocky Nook, SitePoint, or
YoungJin products purchased directly from O'Reilly. The discount code
your members should use is DSUG. Orders can be placed online at
http://www.oreilly.com/store/ or by calling 800-998-9938. Your members
are also entitled to a discount on O'Reilly conferences and tutorials.
Other special discount offers may also be forwarded to your group from
time to time.

In addition, we regularly donate books and other promotional items for
raffles or auctions to help your group raise money, or for meeting door
prizes--just let me know if you're in need of something. (Please allow
enough time for ground shipping.)

Some of our authors are able to speak at group meetings. Let us know if
you are interested we'll do what we can to help arrange speakers.

We'll also send you links to articles, tips, and book and product news
in our UG newsletter. If you opted not to receive the newsletter, you
may want to reconsider, as this is the best way to know which books
are being released, and serves as a reminder to request review copies
for your group. Many groups post the newsletters to their members list
or on their web site.

What you can do for O'Reilly:

- Make sure your members know about our discount by making an
announcement or handing out our bookmarks with the discount info.



Please let me know if you have any questions. I look forward to working
with you.
