[OSM-talk] Suggestion for an Unconference

[Steve Citron-Pousty]

Hey Peter and Emilie:
Totally agree - hence the reason to have an unconference. The important part of this conference would be the back and forth as we try to find the place where we both can get value. I think everyone who wrote the original letter is very sensitive to the claims of any company "driving OSM" - this is NOT what we want. 
 
Does that make sense?
Steve

	Dangerous question.
	On the one hand you are right: It would be awesome.
	But on the other OSM should not be as a big companies wants it to be.
	


I agree with the statement that OSM should be what OSM wants to be. If the goal of OSM coincides with those companies, good, else we should not move out of our way to serve those companies interest.
