my travels to a minimum the rest of this year as I´ve lots of space opening
coming up and I´ve been travelling a lot (right now sitting In Brussels on my
way home from Raleigh). I´m sure I will see you another time in Turkey,

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>with Michael Pannwitz and Jo

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I want to say that the invitation letter is
a product of a very collaborative and interactive</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>process of 4 months that involved
many friends from os world and also</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>outside. </FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2>I
thank all of you: lisa, juliane n., thomas, pepe, mmpannwitz, birgitt,
lada, gail, jo, dominik, avner</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>carol, jaime, my cousins, my mother, </FONT><FONT
face=Arial size=2>and many other
friends. </FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I wanted to invite 4 Open Spacers from
different continents </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>for this meeting : </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The reason for this is that i needed more
support introducing open space</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>to potential participants in Istanbul so
that it's easily welcomed and accepted</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>and then spread.</FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I chose 4 names in many other names whose
approach and explanations were convincing</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>and clarifying for me</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Lisa Heft, Michael Herman, Juan Luis and Mirza
Yawar were these 4 people.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Lisa says it would be tiring for her to
travel such a long distance for the time being.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Yawar is trying to arrange to
come.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Juan Luis thinks that it would be a dream to
come to Istanbul and participate in IAO,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>and i would like to make it possible</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>We are in dialogue with M. Herman,
discussing the ways to make it possible.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>There is another reason to my dream of this
powerful introduction of OST in this region:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The fact that Harrison will be in Istanbul in
April and i am trying to figure out</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>if i (we) can organize a meaningful OST
event around a juicy and conflicting issue</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>which might bring some transformation to our
world.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Any ideas about my above mentioned questions and
concerns?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Moreover those</FONT> <FONT face=Arial
size=2>who want to participate the gathering are more then welcomed.
Please</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>check <A
href="http://www.dertur.com.tr">www.dertur.com.tr</A> for registry,
accomodation and touristic information.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Please spread the word.</FONT></DIV>
