On the idea of meeting up I think the first thing would be to put
together an OSD draft and then put that out there and solicit comments
as heavily as possible.
I also think it would be great for people to have local meetings -- as
Francis suggested we should do one here in Cambridge (UK). Whether we
could find the resources to bring people together from all over the
world is a bigger question -- perhaps it would make sense to organize
special sessions at other events (we could certainly have one at next
year's OKCON).
Regards,
Rufus
