We should definitely do it again.  We have a few students who could participate on the CWL end.

Awesome. Do we have the go-ahead from the OBF board, then?

Kai, I thought you did a great job as admin last year, as did the rest of the OBF team. I'm available to serve as a mentor for any Python-based projects where I can be of help.

Cheers,
Eric

I agree with Eric, I’m definitely on board with Kai heading this up but I’ll let Hilmar make the final decision :) (cc’d)

Thanks
