Alright, I see you've added it to the list and I've filled out the table of 
contents for a kit for general user group advocacy -- I'm unsure whether we 
want a generic one or just materials that can be combined to create kits 
focused on various types of user groups: campus, within a large company, 
community, etc.

I've added your suggestion to the top of the advocacy page, 
http://wiki.python.org/moin/Advocacy but we need european input on possible 
online stores and which ones would serve them best.

I'm copying this to the advocacy list so others can provide input on these 
ideas.  Thanks Tarek for taking the time to get involved.
