<P></P><B>Subject</B>: New York City OS evening (Stammtisch)
<P></P>> Hello All, <BR>> <BR>> If you are (have been or will be) in the New York area, you may be <BR>> awarethat some folks are trying to get a regular gathering going <BR>> of people <BR>> interested in OS. Following the 'Stammtisch' approach suggested <BR>> by our <BR>> German colleagues that is in use all over the OS world, we have been <BR>> meeting on the first Monday of each odd month. September was the <BR>> firstand November was the second. Each time, the four principles <BR>> and the one <BR>> law were in full force. <BR>> <BR>> I am, for the moment, something of an organizer of this, but it's <BR>> all very <BR>> new to me. For example, I'm not sure if Stammtischers stick to the <BR>> schedule when it lands on holidays, etc. such as it would this <BR>> time on Jan <BR>> 2. <BR>> <BR>> I would love to hear from others who are thinking of attending in <BR>> NYC (as <BR>> well as anyone who isn't, of course)
<BR>> <BR>> As for location, we still don't have 'our place' yet. The ideal <BR>> would be <BR>> a bar/cafe with room for a small crowd and where we could hear each <BR>> other. Barring that, I'm thinking about some indoor public spaces <BR>> on the <BR>> Upper West Side. Suggestions are welcome! <BR>> <BR>> -Laurence <BR>> <BR>> * <BR>> * <BR>> ========================================================== <BR>> OSLIST@LISTSERV.BOISESTATE.EDU <BR>> ------------------------------ <BR>> To subscribe, unsubscribe, change your options, <BR>> view the archives of oslist@listserv.boisestate.edu: <BR>> http://listserv.boisestate.edu/archives/oslist.html <BR>> <BR>> To learn about OpenSpaceEmailLists and OSLIST FAQs: <BR>> http://www.openspaceworld.org/oslist <BR>> </BODY>
