[OSList] Okay...Forget Certification then...How about Co-Creating a NEW OST ASSOCIATION? Such as...THE International Association for Peace and Human Understanding...?

[Kári Gunnarsson]

Sure, no problem at all

It's always good to have a few more flowers blooming, then there is more
food for the bees. And we need the bees.

I also think any activity can help reach out and engaging new people.

I would be happy to help set it up. But it will only be one more flower in
the grand open space of the many institutions supporting the open space
around the world.
