FYI,

謝謝葉平教授以及頂立這次的努力，以及過去參與 AOSS 工作的同事所累積的
能量，第六屆 AOSS 傳回最新的消息是，有其他國家對於我們的授權精靈感到
興趣，兩位前線的代表也積極的擬了邀請函（如附件），邀請其他國家的人，
一起加入我們的工作。日本的 ASAI 小姐以及新加坡的林景洲先生，也分別在
會場中協助我們。


Dear Ping & Chaucer,

謝謝兩位的努力，還請兩位辛苦些，下午主動找其他國家代表討論，並可告知
之前 OSI（Open Source Initiative）也對我們的授權精靈感興趣，可以規劃後續
的國際合作。我昨天已經和冬梅簡單討論此事，License Wizard 今年還會持續
改版，除了本地化之外，還可以和其他國家一起研究不同的條款，如還需任何
後勤，請隨時線上找我，謝謝。

關於此事，可以主動聯繫馬來西亞  Afrezal Tahrin ，第五屆的時候，他就表達
合作意願，明年他們要推動自由軟體計畫，或可規劃入其中。

自強
