[OSList] Feedback Requested on OST Invitation

[Michael Herman]

Unless your people already know OS, I'd mix those references, Jake. Replace
with open forum or working session or summit event or summit series. This
avoids question and debate about "the process. "  anyone who knows open
space will still be able to recognize it in your description of what will
happen.

I read quickly and did f notice if this is first of many. If you're
committed to more, I'd mention that.

Also, in the invite or in confirming correspondence to registrants, I reg
will be done, it would be worth making a point about the importance of
being ready when the opening starts. Not exactly saying "don't be late."
 That would counter one of our principles. But we can reinforce the value
of being ready and the importance of the opening time. Especially when
meeting online.

More if you like when we talk this week.
