Peggy has posted a story about her recent 2,000 person event in Bogota, Colombia. And I bet the Berliners posted a story, too. Posted on openspaceworld.org.
Also, I found myself chatting with some OS practitioners while waiting in line to take a shower during a weekend workshop. . . One of us said "I have found the clients who use OS are visionaries". .. I suggested that one of the ways to convince a client to use OS for their events might be to say "Of course, OS is only used by visionary people so this might not be for you!" I was being funny but I think there is a kernel in my joke about how to talk about OS with hesitant clients.
