Hi Dug, In my first OS, I was the so called "donor". The magic, what you mentioned grabbed me and took me to my current journey. Since that I participated in the OS, without magic and I experienced the simplicity of OS, which was also a necessary experience. BUT I am looking for the magic, this keeps me going, I am searching it and creating it.
It would be great if you could find words for the magic, you found:) Bea

Date: Thu, 10 Feb 2005 18:03:14 -0500 Hi-- Have just come off a 2.5 day community OS gathering, upon which I will report to you later, after I process it a bit. One thing that has been on my mind: what is the magic of this kind of meeting? Surely it is not just another way of arranging the chairs.... There is something there that is elusive, hard to capture in words. This morning, this clue: In OS we are engaging people: their creativity; their passions; their minds: wholly and nothing held back. What do you see? Hear? Smell? Touch? Taste? :-Doug.
