The Portland Development Commission is trying to put together a statewide list of Open Source experts, companies authors and gurus... but all they have so far is names in the Portland area.
If you'd like to be on this list, please respond to the email address at the bottom of this post. Also, if you have any contacts in southern Oregon or east of the mountains, I'm sure she'd like to hear from them as well. Ken ---------- Forwarded Message ---------- First, let me introduce myself -- my name is Linda Barney and I own Barney and Associates, a marketing and technical writing firm. I was invited to the OSCG meeting at OSDL. I am co-editor of an open source / Linux column for the SAO. At the Software Association of Oregon newsletter meeting recently, Larry Wade indicated that the Portland Development Commission is doing a study and trying to find out the names of companies involved in Open Source in Oregon, OSource authors located in Oregon, and OS gurus located in Oregon. They plan to produce a study and a series of collateral touting Oregon as an OSource "mecca" that contains OSource experts, companies and authors. They want this done before the O'Reilly Conference comes back in July. Could you send me names relating to Open Source companies, well-known developers, OS authors, and others important to OS / Linux -- they can be anywhere in Oregon not just the Portland area. Feel free to send this to other lists or groups who may be able to provide us with relevant information. I will send the list to Larry Wade at the SAO and he will get the list to the Portland Development Commission. Thanks -- Linda Linda Barney Barney and Associates Beaverton, OR 97006 (503) 629-2063 [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.barneyassoc.com ------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ EuG-LUG mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.efn.org/cgi-bin/listinfo/eug-lug
