WOSonOS Berlin

[Chris Corrigan]

Just back from a lovely one day OSonOSinAus hosted by Viv Mcwaters and geoff Brown and the OSI in Australia.  About 35 people there (but no kangaroo on the menu), and the spirit of Brian very much in the air.  Love being in the field of OSonOS gatherings far and wide.  Have a beautiful time in Berlin.  Perhaps our Czech friend Martin, who was with us in Melbourne last week, will show up there as well.
