Hey guys,
I got this request from my IDL contact a few hours ago. What do y'all
think? Looks like a good idea to me at least.

Hi Kris,
I'm not sure if you remember me, I work for Fight for the Future, the group
behind The Internet Defense League. Fight for the Future is working with a
few other NGOs to get US internet users to register to vote in the upcoming
elections. We've created an easy-to-use applet that syncs TurboVote's API
with information either pulled from Facebook (with the user's permission)
or submitted by the user to quickly and easily create a voter registration
form for their state. You can check out the applet at
http://internetvotes.org. We're looking to get a number
of sites to take
action on National Voter Registration day (September 25th), and we'd love
to have php.net as a participant. Any action will help - some sites are
imbedding the applet as a modal window, others are simply placing a link to
internetvotes.org in a sidebar.
Let us know if php.net would be interested in participating on the 25th.
Thank you,
Douglas Schatz
