The non-voting convergence model

[Chris Corrigan]

Hi folks:

I had forgotten that I posted a story of my application of the
non-voting convergence model on my Open Space weblog back in February.
For those that couldn't get to the TMN discussion, check this link:

Hi Michael.
I facilitated an Open Space meeting a couple of years ago where two blind
persons participated. I remember one of them raised an issue and also wrote
a report (which none of us could read). They seemed to participate fully and
enjoy it a lot.
Best regards
Thomas Herrmann
