That sounds like a fabulous event. Wish I could be there--I love everything about Montana. :)<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Apr 11, 2012 at 1:18 PM, Harold Shinsato <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:harold@shinsato.com">harold@shinsato.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

Dear OSList,<br>
<br>
If any of you are in Montana this weekend, you'll receive a very
friendly welcome at the premier Montana Open Space event - Missoula
BarCamp. April 13-14. <a href="http://missoulabarcamp.org" target="_blank">http://missoulabarcamp.org</a>.<br>
<br>
Inspired originally by O'Reilly's FooCamp and the spinoff BarCamp
until Kaliya Hamlin educated me about Open Space Technology. I
eventually learned OST was the pure lineage from which sprang
BarCamp. So though we use the BarCamp title, I launched it straight
from the OST manual back in 2008 after I took Lisa Heft's awesome
training.<br>
<br>
We're in our fifth year. It's a conversation between artists,
techies, and people who want to make the world better (change
agents).<br>
<br>
Inspired by the awesome work Peggy Holman has done with the
Journalism That Matters conferences - we start with warm up talks.
We now call them "Lightning Keynotes" so we can attract bigger names
with giving them the "bully pulpit" for a short time - and they
usually stay and get involved in the Open Space as well. We've
partnered with IgniteMissoula - so we also opened up for some
community submitted 5 minute talks. I'm excited that OSList member
and fellow JTM-er Sono Hashisaki will be one of those Lightning
Keynotes.<br>
<br>
This is our fifth year - and it's exciting to see it happening in a
beautiful facility - the Native American Center - a gorgeous new
building with a circular lobby that seems built for Open Space. The
University of Montana president will kick us off. I'm very much
excited - and deeply grateful to all the support I've received from
this community over the years.<br>
