Help with reports from short OST

[Michael M Pannwitz]

Dear Doug,
if you envision concrete plans for your country from 400 people in
3,5 hours with two sessions of 50 minutes each you might invite the
participants to post whatever concrete plans they come up with along
some suitable walls in whichever way they find suitable and where
others can enter their names if they intend to participate and skip
the "Book of Proceedings" entirely. The plans and actions can be
posted by the planners themselves on their own websites or on a
website that might come out of the open space event.
If you yourself are a participant your idea of posting material from
the open space on your website could be quite a support. If you are
the sponsor you might want to leave the space open for participants
for such activity.
One thing you might consicer as a support structure, though, is to
provide the means for building a contact list with details on all who
came to the event and how everyone can be contacted for continuing
work after the conference. This can be done as simply as having lists
for people to sign in that care to do so, or having some computers
for people to enter their contact details.
Peace
michael
