Dear all,

I was called today by ScotlandIS to find out if I knew any "Field Experts" in
Open Source to go against Brad Tipp from Microsoft for a re-run of the last
debate in Edinburgh, which was Microsoft vs IBM Linux.

They need advice on the best OSS expert to ask to go against Brad this time in
Aberdeen.

I suggested we get a panel of 3, Microsoft can easily get another 2 marketing
guys for their panel.

I suggested one from all the LUGs, one from a Business/Businesses and one from
Schools or the like? Maybe someone like Bob Kerr?

Thoughts?

This is to be in August sometime?

There will be more Q&A time this time too.
