<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>Thanks for your answer, I love that way of
converging as well, but this time I don´t think it will be ripe to do that. To
my judgement the theme is too wide and the time too little, so we will think
about other ways to go on afterwards – maybe more OST-meetings or online
as they are normally spread out all over <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place
w:st="on">Sweden</st1:place></st1:country-region>. Or they may go for more
time for the actual OS-meeting – we´ll see that in our planning-meeting.
But as I see the circumstances now, this seems like a good way.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

ago. I learned from the list, I think it was Michael Pannewitz, a quite other
way to vote. I used it ever aftherwards. It is very simple; just open space
again and ask who wants to bring one of the subjects (early mentioned) one step
further. It is simple and I think more inline with the proces of Open space
than te stickie voting. </span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>Dear friends in Open
Space <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>I am having discussions with a friend of mine who runs a
company which does surveys for companies in a quite interesting and easy way
– by using Internet. In September I will facilitate an OST-meeting with
about 350 people – only 5-6 hours. I would like to try letting the
participants have the documentation sent and allowing time for reading before
voting on which are most important to them. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>A couple of times I´ve let participants answer via email
– which of course is a lot of work. So in order to do one less thing I´d
like to try this software which we very easily can modify to meet our needs.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>My question is: What recommendations/ideas do you have for
the voting. When I use stickies in physical voting (which I´ve done with quite
large groups) I usually give them something like 5 votes to use as they like
– all five on one issue or spread out. This could be one alternative for
this software too. I know some of you let people put 10 votes on the top one, 9
on the second most important and so on until 1. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>So I would appreciate pros and cons that you see/have
experienced about these methods and any other suggestions.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
