Dear Yuval:
After reading your message and Harrison's, I think that my best bet is to converge later, at a slower pace, and it can be apropiate to organize a Future Search Conference with sessions' conveners. My SWAG is that it'll be 100-150 conveners, maybe less. It implies 2 - 3 FS at the same time. What do you think?
Greetings,
