Last Monday Graham Attwell met with Randy Metcalf, director of the UK OS watch project. OS watch is sponsored by the UK Universities Joint Information Services Committee. It aims to provide balanced and impartical advice to universities and further education colleges on the use of Open Source software. It was agreed at the meeting that there were a considerable number of areas in which the two projects could usefully collaborate.

.Areas for joint work discussed included:

- RSS feeds of content between web sites

- sharing of taxonomies for the respective project software catalogues,

- the possibility of OSS Watch joining in on one of your tri-monthly meetings in either Ireland or Spain.

- the possibility of OSS Watch participating in the next JOIN conference in Köln.

- an invitation for SIGOSEE to participate in the next OSS Watch event directly related to educational open source software.
