I read the article in yesterday's Oregonian - or was it the day before
yesterday.

In any case, it was a good article; and altho it made a reference to
IBM's past as the once dominant player and didn't say much about IBM
today; it did mention IBM's Open Source center in the Silicon Forest.
On the other hand, it didn't mention OSU's OSL which had a major role 
in putting on GOSCON.

The other thing I noticed was that all the organizations mentioned 
in the article are relative new comers to Oregon's Open Source 
scene.

                                          Sincerely,
