Actually, I think this could be a lot of fun. Christian Ahlert is the
only person involved in the business and investment side of 'open' and
'free' technologies that I trust - and that's saying *a lot*.

Apart from that, it's kind of true that there isn't really an event that
caters for this kind of business networking. Sure, you can turn up at
Dorkbotlondon hoping to find someone to fix your robotic garden-hose
mantrap, but they won't lead it into IPO phase for you.

That's the kind of person Christian is trying to attract to this event,
and dammit, we need those people.

XX

Saul.
