[OSList] is our voting software dead?

[Michael M Pannwitz]

... yes, skip the voting (all it gives you is a statistical picture with 
little or no indication of where the prerequisite passion is) and do 
what is now called "Action Space". This is in fact nothing other than 
the good old open space not asking for "issues" but for "projects" that 
are present in the room and need to be worked on.
Works like a charm.
Done it many times.
Does not need endorsement of "proposals" by anyone since the outcome are 
actions people are mad about (if they need endorsals or whatever it 
might be the "Next Step" they decide on).

A very detailed account of how I do it (I am sure everyone has their own 
approach) you find in "Meine open space Praxis" (page 159 ....),

Its all in German but considering that at one time there was more German 
spoken in Chicago than any other language you will find someone to 
translate it for you.

Have a great day, see you in Belgrade?
