<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000000>Dear Open Space friends around the
globe!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000000></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000000>Together with the best wishes for an
exciting 2008 I am pleased to inform you about a very special
project:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000000></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000000>On December 4, 2007 the "First German Online
Climate Summit" was held on the basis of the OpenSpace-Online Methodology.
Patron of the event was the President of the German Federal Environment Agency,
the organizer was the "Deutsche Städte- und Gemeindebund" (German Association of
Towns and Municipalities), financial support and sponsorship for the project was
provided by Cisco Systems and the concept and technology partner was
OpenSpace-Online GmbH. The aim of this event was to enable an improvement in the
quality of interdisciplinary, open and - at the same time - result-oriented
collaboration, with the involvement of the most important environmental and
climate experts in Germany, while simultaneously starting a comprehensive
information and communication campaign under the motto "local authorities
protecting the climate". The First German Online Climate Summit was intended to
be the kick-off event for fast, unbureaucratic and forward-looking collaboration
over long distances and across borders for organizations, institutes and
universities, as well as public and local authorities.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000000></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000000>For the German Association of Towns and
Municipalities the online climate summit and the use of the OpenSpace-Online
method was a resounding success. They say: "Our intention is to continue the
online climate summit in the coming years, possibly at an international level.
The results of the summit will be included in the face-to-face event "Climate
Protection and Energy Efficiency – Local Authority Strategies for Action and
Methods of Resolution", which will be held by the German Association of Towns
and Municipalities on January 11, 2008 in cooperation with the Federal
Environment Ministry (with the participation of the Minister of the
Environment)."</FONT></DIV>
