>> Here is a short FAQ:
>>
>> Q: What is a Self-Addressed Stamped Envelope?
>> A: A Self-Addressed Stamped Envelope (SASE) is an envelope with the
>> sender's name and address on it, with affixed paid postage. In the UK,
>> this is also known as a "Stamped Addressed Envelope (SAE)".
>>
>> Q: Where do I send my SASE?
>> A:
>> Red Hat
>> c/o Tom Callaway
>> 314 Littleton Road
>> Westford, MA
>> 01886-4105
>>
>> Q: How long is this offer good?
>> A: We will return any SASEs that I receive on or before May 31, 2011.
>>
>> Q: How does this work?
>> A: Basically, you write your mailing address on an unsealed envelope and
>> attach paid US postage to that envelope (enough to send a letter to that
>> address from the US). This is your SASE.
>>
>> Next, you put your SASE in another envelope, which you then mail to me
>> at the above address.
>>
>> When I receive it, I will open your envelope, put in some nifty Fedora
>> stickers and case badges, seal it up and drop it back in the mail to you.
>>
>> Q: Is there a limit on how many SASEs I can send you?
>> A: Please, one SASE per person. If you have some sort of complicated
>> situation, feel free to email me directly and we'll work something out
>> (spot at fedoraproject.org).
>>
>> Q: Is this offer open to contributors outside the US?
>> A: Of course! We realize that it may not be possible or simple for our
>> international contributors to get their hands on US postage, so you are
>> more than welcome to include an International Reply Coupon instead.
>> (More info about International Reply Coupons can be found here:
>> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_reply_coupon) If you choose
>> this option, please do not forget to include the self-addressed envelope!
>>
>> Q: Can I decorate my SASE?
>> A: Sure. Just remember that it will be coming right back to you.
>>
>> Q: Do I need to prove that I am a Fedora User or Contributor?
>> A: Nope. If you go to the trouble of sending us the SASE, we'll send you
>> stickers and case badges.
>>
>> Q: Can I tweet/dent/facebook/IRC/email/tell my friends about this offer?
>> A: Absolutely.
>>
>> Q: Can I just put some money in the envelope and have you buy postage
>> with it for me?
>> A: No. Any money found in the envelope will go into my 1 year old son's
>> college fund. If postage is a problem, please send me an email
>> (spot at fedoraproject.org).
>>
>> Q: Will Fedora or Red Hat keep a record of my mailing address?
>> A: Nope. All we'll do is put stickers and case badges in the envelope,
>> seal it up, and drop it back in the mail.
>>
>> Q: How many stickers and case badges do I get?
>> A: One large Fedora Logo laptop sticker (3 inch) and four small foil
>> "Powered by Fedora" case badges.
>>
>> Q: What do the stickers look like?
>> A: http://spot.fedorapeople.org/sticker-pic.jpg
>>
>> Q: I have a question that isn't answered here, where can I ask it?
>> A: Email spot at fedoraproject.org.
