• I tried to reserve the conference website name when I was in vacation to Romania, on .com, .org, .net and .ro; unfortunately I couldn’t do it there. When I turned back and tried, Liberatica.com and Liberatica.ro was reserved. Hmmm, surprise? Laurentiu Buzdugan pointed me to this article…
• Of course I was upset, but I had a moment of ispiration and I picked up a new name, very close to the original one and more meaningful. We are going to announce it when all the legal papers will be settled, this time.
• Agora people are preparing the legal papers that will stipulate the conference and ROSI status.
• I finished a draft presenting the initiative and the conference (Conference Manifesto).
• Mircea is going to polish it and give it a nice shape – he is a professional in the field.
• Two of the newest ROSI members, Adriana and Madalina Nan (right, they are sisters, actually twins) are going to prepare a pdf document presenting Brasov city and Romania for the out of the country guests
• I set up the hosting for the conference website – a single one, on .ro (the rest of org, net, com are going to point to .ro )
• Ionut finished the graphic logo for ROSI (we are going to publish it soon, right now we are waiting for ROSI members comments)
• Stefan and a friend of him (a graphic artist) designed the first draft for the conference logo and probably is going to be ready till next week
• I’m also working on the conference website. There will be two phases; first time we are going to set a single page and we are going to promoting it. In the meantime, we are going to prepare a CMS that will hold the full conference website.
• Boris and Roland from Bryght promised us hosting for ROSI website; we are still working on the structure of this site. Probably we are going to focus on it only after finishing the conference website.
• Cristian  (from linux360.ro) integrated my blog into their planet (http://planet.linux360.ro/). Thank you Cristian!
• Last but not least, Alex started to blog and spread the word about the conference. The same is doing Zak and Carmen. And this is only the beginning

The bottom line, we are doing well and we are on the schedule.
