Among the awesome aspects is the wonderful mix of young and not-so-young practitioners and promoters of OST and self-organising principles - we're dancing in a container of rich diversity and inter-generational engagement that is beautiful to behold... I'm so glad I'm here, receiving much from the space that has been created by the convergence of passion and responsibility - sound familiar!!! Oh, and another observation, Berlin hospitality is generous and bountiful... And yet another, Fr Brian has showed up all over the place - surprise, surprise! And yet another another, WOSonOs continues to evolve with 'irresistible offers' being prepared for tomorrow from Chile (2011) and London (2012).....
