I have used to say, that the principles emerge out from the law, they are direct cosequences of implementation the law. Perhaps this enables the law to be present even when it is not mentioned.

Hi there: Some in the group had been in Open Space, it wasn't posted on the walls, and I think I covered the whole process including choice and showing up and if you want to talk about something, put it on the agenda. It was a meeting mostly of youth, and it unfolded like most other OST events I have been in: 35 or 40 people getting to work. I even posted photos of it here:http://www.flickr.com/photos/31354844@N00/sets/103725/ Cheers, Chris On 5/26/05, Artur Silva <[email protected]> wrote: Chris, Michael, etc: I agree with Michael that the consensus in our previous discussion was that the law (contrarily to the "principles" - as I have done a few OS events without ANY reference to the "principles") is an absolute "fundamental" of OST. So I would like to have some clarifications about the conditions relating to that situation where you, Chris, "left out the law". Was that the first event for that group or had they already had a previous one WITH the Law? The Law was written in the walls? Was that a big goup or a small one? Did they split in small groups during breackouts or not? Did you mentioned in the opening that in the breakout meetings they could "change groups"?Did they do that? Anyone questioned you about leaving or not a session?
