Hi Doug: I know of a few that are going on. Ashley Cooper and Christie Lee-Engle and I have been inc conversation about one in Seattle, and when Ashley was visiting a couple weeks ago I told her the story of your invitation process that involved witting and talking with people in addition to handing out a written invitation. I love this because it embodies the invitation and the conference itself.
I'm also working with some young folks around here to plan a one day Open Space in association with the international Business Alliance for Local Living Economies conference we are hosting in Vancouver in June. The youth forum will be about connecting and acting around sustainability. It's giving, doing and living, all wrapped up. There is something compelling about gathering people together in the spirit of Open Space, the Practice of Peace, Giving, Doing and Do-gooding, that gives me a lot of inspiration. I think in the last couple of years OST folks supporting these events have stumbled on the natural home for the process in the world. Chris On 4/25/05, Douglas D.
