Day 1 of Open Space in fishing village (X-posted OSlist and GC-list)
Dear friends in Open Space
We decided to dive into Open Space immediately after much consideration. Thanks for all feedback and ideas on the list!
I didn't even manage to finish my opening until the first person jumped up to raise topics. 48 participants enjoyed the 2 sessions and a very powerful closing circle. Now there is 9 days until the next Open Space afternoon followed by convergence on Saturday morning May 24th. I will let you know how it goes!

Thomas,
First, congratulations! Delighted to hear you are off to a good start.
I’m sorry I didn’t get back to you in time with thoughts on an opening question for Cheeks in Chairs. Sounds like it ended up being unnecessary. And I do agree that starting standing is a better way to go. Your thinking it through on the list answered the why better than I could have!

That’s right. OSlist is a great listener when having questions, doubts and half baked ideas.
And then of course the juice of the wisdom shared in the circle.
Thanks again
Happy weekend
Thomas
