Michael Pannwitz's comment about OSonOS 2008 in Berlin

[Ted Ernst]

Maybe it's just me, but Michael Herman's concept sounded a bit
different to me than "Regional OSonOSs".  I'd never go to a BOSonOS,
for example, because that's about opening more space in Berlin.  And
the San Antonio OSonOSinUS that I did go to was about opening more
space in the US, where I live.  Berliner would've been welcome, of
course, but the topic was about opening space in the US.  So it was a
regional gathering.

What I'm hearing differently in Michael Herman's idea is simultaneous,
multi-site, international OSonOS in many places at once.  That feels
like a horse of a different color, yes?  I might just show up in
Berlin for that.  And some Danish might show up in San Francisco.
That would be cool!

peace,
ted
