This is super cool! I support this and am happy to help, maybe in two ways:

* (Backup) Mentor. This seems to be well covered, but I am glad to
help if you can use me.

* Bridging OSI/Ossie with Microsoft Power BI. I am passionate about
OSS and close to the Power BI team in my day job. I had wondered in
the past how to engage to connect the two and voila: this opportunity
presents itself. Thank you!

Thanks,

Markus
