and, in the spirit you bring here, john...

let's keep in mind that if we want a number of ongoing activities to come out
of this, and want them to continue to unfold in an open space way, it is
important for the leaders of those (downstream spaceholders) to have seen us
pulse back and forth across this line, so that they can do it in their followup
groups.  sometimes it's even beneficial to discuss such movement and merging of
the two sides, facilitator and sponsor, while the first event is still going
on.  this is what we were getting at in the 'beyond convergence and training'
conversation at metanet.

two more cents from me.
