Hi Itai,
I do not know if you are aware, but the first tabernacle was built by Moses in the Sinai Desert with the Acacia seyal!

Dear All (apologies for cross posting)

Those of you who know the story of how the Australians "stole" the
name "Acacia" for their "wattles" might like to vote on the issue.
Please click on this link and follow the instructions.

Please send on to anyone you know who might feel strongly about this
issue. Thanks.

Regards

Quentin

I attach the Acacia website - have you voted yet/ We are starting to
do planning for next years Int. Bot. Congress with the vote on the
Vienna procedure on Acacia vote - and this website will be brought up
during the congress to try and show the depth of feeling in Africa
(and Latin America, and S Asia) on keeping what is ours!
Spread the news, and the votes, please.
