>
>    - Provide a richer, extended opportunity for you and your peers to
>    share learning, get to know each other and cross-pollinate ideas
>    - Build off the energy of the previous day's "programmed" sessions
>    to go deeper and develop action plans or initiatives around topics of
>    importance
>    - Model an innovative meeting approach (in combination with tool
>    applications) that you can take back and implement in your organizations and
>    communities
>
> We invite and strongly encourage you to bring "live" planning challenges
> into Open Space for your peers, issue area experts and tool providers to
> help you grapple with. We invite tool providers and specialists to come
> prepared to showcase tools and applications in action. We invite the
> spontaneous creation of learning networks among people with shared interests
> or challenges. Open Space is about distributing expertise and knowledge
> among peers. It's all about who shows up and what they bring to the table.
>
> We hope you'll plan to join us "at the table" in Denver October 19-21 and
> invite friends and colleagues to do the same.
