Fr Brian Bainbridge

[Michael Pannwitz]

Dear friends

sharing my tears - i remember the vivid good arguments we had at the last
WOSONOS with Brian sharing his wisdom on hosting and facilitating open space
without added "action planning" with another design - "NOT shutting down the
space!" I so much enjoy his passion. And i am sure he will be present at the
WOSONOS in Berlin in many ways - and still i miss him already.

PS: and we had a lot of fun like running around in Taipei with Pavel and
climming the 101 to enjoy the sunset - and i remember the shock when he
disappeared for one night in Kiev... and i had just enjoyed his newsletter
early this morning - i am glad i will get to tell and listen to more stories
at our boscop meeting with my dear colleagues here coming up at 10 am

much love & peace to all of you
