I've never felt it was "holy property". In fact, when people reorganize the schedule wall with further time refinements, it always seem to have been appreciated in the Open Spaces I've been too. And further, removing the events that are over certainly makes it easier to find sessions. I'm also finding it quite a bit nicer when I only need to look at sessions that are up coming on the schedule wall - and not the full history. I've never minded things the way they were before - like you say - it works well. But this change has been quite a refreshing change and the rest of the participants seem to be appreciating it as well.

I use "deadline for reports" notes in the schedule, at the newswall and at the desk where reports are deposited... and I announce the deadline in my intro and, in multiple day os events, in the morning news of the second day... in the 170+ events I have been involved in, this has always worked well. I would never mess with the bulletin board, seems to me to be the holy property of the participants (at the end of the event we take it down and include it in the archives of the event alongside other visualized material, the archives being handed over to the sponsor of the event).

Thanks Harold,
Great idea. I'm preferring 'Did'nt arrived yet' instead of 'Not done'

I'm writing from San Francisco after the first day of Agile Open Northern
California.

In case you aren't familiar with Agile - it is a revolutionary and now
quite popular software development philosophy that also comes with a number
of practices. Open Space Technology has quite a history with the Agile
movement, especially for some of the earliest Agile conferences - up through
today.

Today I've seen one of the most effective methods ever for encouraging
prompt session reports. The approach is loaned from the Japanese "Kanban"
which just means visual card. Kanban is now being used in software
development to help track what's planned and what's done with visual cards
posted on a wall.

At Agile Open NorCal - once the sessions were completed, the paper used to announce it was are removed from the agenda wall and moved to another wall where there were two slots. The first is "not done", or the sessions for which notes were not produced. Once notes were completed, the session page would be moved to the "done" slot. I was impressed how it seemed to speed up
people finishing the notes - just by having quick visibility about what
sessions had completed documentation, and which didn't.

Any thoughts about this? It seems quite easy to do.
