[FSF] Volunteers & the Annual Members Meeting

[Tony Wieczorek]

Hello,

Volunteers continue to be key to the success of projects organized by
the GNU Project and Free Software Foundation. An important part of our
role at the FSF office is to help coordinate such efforts.

We have just updated the listing of the many ways that you can get
involved <http://www.fsf.org/volunteer> Take a look, and let us know if
you can help.
