ROOL Mouse Mat Project

Posted by Steve Revill Tue, 17 Apr 2007 18:49:00 GMT

We at ROOL are planning to start selling mouse mats to help raise funds to contribute towards our work on the Shared Source RISC OS project. We are planning on having a “map of the RISC OS community” as the mouse mat design. All of the profits that we make from selling the mouse mats and from donations are put towards administration of the Shared Source RISC OS project. The project is reaching a new phase now so all contributions are very welcome!
