Invitation to The Open Space Oscars

What , Why, How (to be co-edited)

What
http://project30000.blogspot.com suggests:
we all make nominations for top 10 projects to have been open spaced between 
2000- 2005. There can be different categories as we emerge. Top can have 
different criteria "from changed the whole world" to changed one community's 
world so deeply there's a lesson we can all learn from it (scientists among us 
most of all) 

Why
Well project 30000 needs 30000 open projects for humanity by 2010. That much 
has been forecast by death of distance storytelers, media commentators and 
economists since 1984 - some communities have been working on scripts like 
photosynthesis projects for most of that time: others like Bush's Gathering 
storm leadership circle of 21 at www.nap.edu and the part of State of the 
Union Speech they co-wrote appear to have only discovered death of distance as 
a scenario tool for opening leadership minds since last fall. But they have 
come up with America's finest open space races for quite a while: end 
addiction to petroleum economics and do what you can to get kids to love 
learning science as much as sports.

WE have started asking various deep democracy communities to nominate their 10 
or so projects, so that:
they can be listed along side each other

we can learn from any parallels, and indeed start waving across experts if 
needs be

once we see each community's list, we can have a combined vote and then take 
them to world service media and demand their stories be told; the British have 
a particularly urgent need to do this as the BBC's licence gets set in stone 
for another 10 years after Decmber even though the BBC is funbded by we the 
people not the government that will set it in stone

How 
Make your nomination by 2 days before Hollywoods oscars; in case there's a 
chance to get some news out of the gravity of the alternative oscars compared 
with all the imagery of celebrities

To see if I can get your balls rolling, I'll nominate the open space project 
of my fallen friend Colin Morley - becasue of his open spacing 500 Londoners 
meet annually for 4 days to debate what Gandhi meant by Be The Change, and how 
we can openly apply it. Whether they will quite make it to Delhi's centenaty 
for all Be The Change networkers in 2007 is now in some doubt without Colin 
but with due respect to Shakespeare's Stolling Player this stage is set to 
continue while Open London does
