Dear Pavel,
in several ways the stammtisch is the original open space gathering long 
before people knew how to read and write...more detail on the when and 
where of the worldwide open space stammtisch at

> http://www.openspaceworldmap.org/
click MENU and the STAMMTISCHE.

A stammtisch is a regular gathering at a regular time (like every 
Tuesday evening, or once a month or, as is the case with the os 
stammtische around the planet, every Monday of every odd month at 
7pm)where people interested in a particular aspect of life, as for 
instance open space, gather for beer (other drinks are perfectly ok) and 
food as everyone wishes and talk with each other about whatever is on 
top of your mind regarding open space (in a broader sense). People come 
and go as they find useful, some arrive at 7 pm (I usually even earlier 
to secure a table and talk to the people in the pub), some as late as 11 
pm and it will usually last until well past midnight. No agenda, lots of 
energy. Last stammtisch in Berlin several people came because they 
needed work (in os, of course), well, they in fact found others that 
were looking for help. So its networking, creating collaboration, new 
ideas are born, people bring stuff for each other to look at (pictures, 
a couple of books of proceedings from recent open spaces, a bottle of 
brandy from Kyiv,  there are always a couple of laptops to show things 
to each other and to write an email to another stammtisch lets say in 
Kyiv or Budapest..).
Often, there are also visitors from other countries passing through 
Berlin that are real open space stammtisch addicts, they have heard of 
the Berlin one and join. So its international, too.
And we are always ready to convene an extraordinary stammtisch, 
especially if people like you pass through Berlin just at the time when 
there is no regular one scheduled...
Now that this has grown a little longer and the question of what is a 
stammtisch keeps coming up regularly I will also send this to OSLIST 
with the information that the next stammtisch is on July 2nd. Everywhere.
Greetings from Berlin
