Recording OST notes

[AVNERH]

Hi Dave

We used that once in Israel and it worked fine.The laptops in the rooms were connected to an electronic board that all the group could glance to but they hardly did while discussing. They stayed few minutes after the meeting to elaborate and it was done. Some groups refrained to write sensitive materials (maybe because of that, but they had other reasons as well).I must admit that they were efficient people who are trained in summerize meetings.

  Friends:

  We need some help.  We are getting ready to do a health care Open Space in Peoria, Illinois and had an idea for recording the discussions.  We are thinking about having a computer located at each discussion group so that the typing could be done in real time as the discussion happens.  

  The reason for this is twofold.  One, it saves time for the scribe, so that he/she doesn't miss the beginning of the next session.  Second, on our final evening of the Open Space, we have very little time to turn out the number of copies we need to hand out at the end.  This again would save us time.

  Has anyone done this?  If so, how did it work?  What are the benefits or drawbacks?  I would appreciate any feedback, and quickly if possible, since our event is on April 10th and 11th.  

  Thanks,
  Dave Koehler
