[OSList] The Power of Pre-Work - August 8-10, San Francisco

Tue Jul 3 11:47:02 PDT 2012

Or, dear Hege (and Michael, Alan et al)
It's closer to Sweden :-)  (at least from Norway) to arrange such a workshop - and in fact - that is what some of us are doing already - as Thomas Herrmann and myself for example :-))
And Alan - Sweden and Norway are that close so I guess you could visit both..... :-)

So Hege - if you are interested....

Hugs
:o)
Eva
