Jimmy I am just wondering why you want to short change the Main Conference?
Personally I would not want to be the nasty so and so who made 1200 people
sit in chairs for 5 days -- while their friends and neighbors enjoyed the
freedom, growth, stimulation, learning, joy, enthusiasm, and satisfaction of
Open Space. Seems like cruel and unusual punishment to me. And this rank
injustice could be easily remedied. Just do the whole thing in Open Space.

The reason I ask, is because the overbooked 
conference to which I referred,will run from a 
Saturday evening through Friday Morning, with 5 
full days in between.  If an OS conference was 
run concurrently for the overflow, we would 
probably want it to be the same length.
