[OpenDesign] Joining the list

Mon Sep 3 20:42:31 UTC 2012

Hi, Kat, Massimo

I'd really love to attend the OKFest, looks amazing, but it won't be
possible this time. I'll follow it as closely as possible through the
Internet.
The FCF in Barcelona could be a great opportunity to meet!

Best,

Jorge
