[OSList] Charrette and Open Space ?

[Michael M Pannwitz]

even though I have not encountered charrette, it definitely must have to 
do with open space... the german wikipedia identifies it as a high

drugs, too... so you are on the right track there, Eva...

...oh yes, it also is a public planning method for urban and regional 
development projects used mainly in the USA where planners, designers, 
architects, deciders etc. discuss with affected citizens (also called 
"the victims" of the plan) to get some acceptance for such projects...
