No need to get *quite* so excited - they're recycling PCs.  Just like us. 
And like probably more than a hundred other groups around the world. 
They're doing good work, and it's something that we can do here in
Australia.

I don't quite see how we can seize publicity from this - how many newspapers
are going to do a story on ComputerBank on the basis of a "we do the same as
them" press release?

Making contact with the group(s) featured in the article shouldn't be quite
that difficult.  Feel free to do so, if you need someone's approval.
