A new chapter?

I'm not long back from a couple of weeks in Australia and New Zealand on a joint Training and working with a member trip.

 The training was in Melbourne and on the last day we had a fire drill at 4pm, as the training was scheduled to finish somewhere between 4:30 and 5, I was not too surprised when the class packed up at the sound of the alarm and said goodbye at the fire assembly point!

As always in that part of the world the class were enthusiastic, taught me some bonzer Australian words and all swapped mail addresses promising to keep in touch after the event.

 This prompted a class discussion on the viability of creating an "Australasian Chapter" of the TM Forum, along the lines of the South American community. As an action, I said that I would canvass support for the idea in my blog and if enough interest was shown, we could create such a community.

 So this is the call for participation, if you would be interested in supporting / joining such a community or even better if you are interested in helping to organize or could host a meeting, then let me know by email achalmers@tmforum.org or by responding to this blog.

 I'm optimistic of a good response

Until next time

"gidday"
