Ethnographic STufy of an Open Space

[Richard Norris]

Andrew,

I looked for the study electronically and could not get my hands on it
either.  I am in the middle of my masters research, a grounded theory study
on "the value of using OST".  It is a qualitative based research project
using the full spectrum of OST stories and recounts that I could obtain
electronically, reviewing them for value (pers, org, etc) and synthesising
the results for comparrision with contemporary theory.  Hopefully it will
provide myself and others with future areas of research focus around OST.

If you get your hands on a copy of Marlene's study I would appreciate a
copy if you can send it electronically, via the list serve would be great.
I believe it would spark some great conversation.

Thanks
Rich Norris
