+1 from me if there is a bit more solid proposal (when, where, what theme).

I think this whole issue could've been avoided if you had come forward
right in the beginning and said "let me do a conference" instead of
"we should think of doing a conference". This is the right spirit for
getting things done :-)

Vikings were good at sailing and burning down things... not
necessarily in running industry associations ;-)

While I would love to do more *if* I had the time, I'm also ready to
step down from the board.
But only on the condition that there is a new board that will really
accomplish things. If OSCOM continues in its current status, I'd
rather stay on they board and help to oversee the dismantling.

PS. For the new people on the list, the Viking reference has a bit of
background...
