Michael Pannwitz's comment about OSonOS 2008 in Berlin

[Michael M Pannwitz]

Dear Larry,
it simply is a given that there are now citybased,local, regional, 
international and the worldwide OSonOS / Learning Exchanges / Gatherings 
of the communities of practice...a complex, diverse, chaotic, 
orderly...movement.
I love them all, wrinkles and potholes and happy times included.
The next hands-on, huggable worldwide event will be in Kiev. As I see 
it, there might be, as usual, a bunch of invitations for the next 
worldwide OSonOS to consider in Kiev in May.
In the meantime, lets organize so that there will be something like that 
mix of 50% locals and 50% from all over that you talk about.

In the meantime, let Lisa hear of how we support the Access Queen with 
its long traditon since OSonOS VIII in Berlin when several people 
spontaneously plunked down big bills in the closing circle eventually 
supporting colleagues to travel to the following OSonOS in Vancouver.

In the meantime, let us see each other in the worldmap (everybody 
invited!!) where there are presently 420 of us, not quite huggable but 
with contact data and great pictures. (Surplus supports the spread of 
open space through such venues as Access Queen)

In the meantime, let us put the events we facilitated or will facilitate 
into the now worldwide open space worldscape....which presently shows 
320 events in detail with the potential of many thousands.

Off for the second "next meeting" following an event with a parish last 
year that spawned some amazing developments...quite characteristic of os 
events!!

hugs from Berlin
