        Dear Madi, dear all,<br>
        thanks for driving this ! I couldn't respond earlier due to<br>
        being offline.<br>
        Here's an idea: Proposals for new sessions for next years EGU<br>
        can (still) be submitted until mid-September. The well<br>
        established "show & tell" session on FOSS in Earth and Space<br>
        Science Informatics will continue as in the last years (.. its<br>
        one of the few continuously growing sessions in ESSI..), but<br>
        what about an independent session on the strategic benefits of<br>
        FOSS for infrastructures (Data Centers, Clusters, Reserach<br>
        Libraries, Massive Computing, etc etc.) ? Anyone interested ??<br>
        Cheers,<br>

                                  But seriously, here are my two<br>
                    eurocents on how to move on:<br>
                                  1) Drafting (-> titan pad) of an<br>
