[ospo.zone] November Updates 
Hiho good people, 

Here are the latest news from the OSPO Alliance.

## Presentations / Events / Members

* We presented the Handbook v1.2 at the EclipseCon Europe event in Ludwigsburg, Germany in October. The audience was not huge, but the discussion was highly interesting. You can watch the video here [1].

* We were at the OSOR awards [2] this week (W47). Great event, great projects, great crowd.
  It was interesting to realise that people - especially in the public sector, as this was this event's target - do know the OSPO Alliance and the GGI Handbook. We met many people, from states' ministries to the EU itself, who not only heard about it, but actually have read it and use it to develop or improve their OSPO. We will introduce during our next iteration more content for specific variants of OSPOs, including the public sector.

* Welcome our latest member joining the Alliance: LibreOffice / The Document Foundation [3]!
LibreOffice is renowned for their world-class office suite, and is represented by Italo Vignoli. Welcome!
