I just received that post from the Mandriva newsletter. You may already know

Mandriva material for Linux User Groups

Do you represent a Linux User Group (LUG)? Will you be organising a
Linux-related event soon? If so, please contact us! We can provide
you with Mandriva-related material which you can distribute to your
members during the event. Contact us at lugs at mandrivalinux dot
org.
