Hi there, 

Sounds like WOSonos was fun! Maybe those who are interested in inviting can 
call a session about it DURING the open space and those who have an interest 
can go to that session. Even if the decision doesn't get made there a lot of 
the issues and questions will already have been processed in some way. 

I have to say this part of WOSonOS is the most difficult bit as a host and it 
does currently feel very UN open spacey

Best regards,

Phelim McDermott
