thanks, larry. i posted about meetup some time ago, more than a few days ago... perhaps somebody else should get credit for posting recently. and yes, when i found it, it sure looked like open space to me! circles gathering around purposes, posted on bulletin board, open marketplace, active monthly or weekly breathing. self-organization is.

Michael Herman posted a link to www.meetup.com a few days ago and I had the gift of a bit of slack in my schedule. So I went to the site. I found an active Toronto community using meetup. One of the active groups was focusing on Ken Wilbur and having a meeting last night. Everything conspired for me to show up and it was a marvellous conversation. People were at various levels in understanding and exploring, but some real depth from the psychological stream and the scientific stream and some who had been exploring Wilbur's work for 10 years or more. One relative newbee had recently taken Spiral Dynamics training and was keen to make those connections. Few had heard about OST but were fascinated by what they heard. A couple of folks in the group are also active in an Andrew Cohen network and the magazine "What is Enlightenment?" The magazine's latest edition is on "the mystery of collective intelligence". I have not read it, but OST is not a featured subject. So it blew them away to hear what OST is about and the synchronicity of the conversation that evening. I plan to go back when I can again. Just thought I would say thanks to Michael. Meetup is a free "bulletin board" to enable connections between people and seems to be active in English in many countries.
