If we can definitely decide the main url for the site (ose, osie, whatever)
For what it's worth, I have been using osie.org.uk for all the publicity I have sent so far (newsgroup announcements, letters to contacts, press releases etc.). My *personal* preference is for osie.org.uk, for two reasons: 1) The ".uk" suggests that it is UK-based and therefore likely to be directly relevant to UK schools, in a way that simply ".org" does not. 2) "OSIE" has a (reasonably) clear, unambiguous pronunciation, whereas "OSE" does not. I still think that, as far as the purely technical side goes, the domains should be interchangeable so, for example, www.osie.org.uk = www.osie.org = www.ose.org.uk etc. As promised, I will send out a summary of the points raised in my initial presentation soon.
