[plug] OSWA closing ?

[Shayne O'Neill]

Hey, another AV tech. :)

(Well, I've been out of the industry for quite a few years now, but I
think at some point I'll return to the industry. One day).

Hi all,

This is my first post, and i'm currently in the process of joining the
group as a member :)

I currently work in the engineering dept of a metro TV station right
here in Perth, and may be in a position to get a story run on the news
in regards to this.

If someone wants to contact me off list (I have not been completely
following everything, and only subscribed to the list yesterday) i'd be
more than happy to take down some details and speak to some journo's at
work.

I have seen plenty of info regarding OSWA and i'm sad to see it go.

Kind regards
Blake

P.S. Hi Kai, fancy seeing you here :)
