It seems to help with momentum, even if it is at the last minute before the follow-up. A gentle reminder email to conveners also helps volunteers who otherwise get busy with the rest of life.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>~Eric<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><b>From:</b> OSList <oslist-bounces@lists.openspacetech.org> <b>On Behalf Of </b>anat kedem via OSList<br><b>Sent:</b> Tuesday, December 31, 2019 9:42 AM<br><b>To:</b> Jeff Aitken <r.jeff.aitken@gmail.com><br><b>Cc:</b> anat kedem <anatked@gmail.com>; ???? ??????? <gilads.pro@gmail.com>; ???? ??????? <rita.bh@gmail.com>; World wide Open Space Technology email list <OSList@lists.openspacetech.org><br><b>Subject:</b> Re: [OSList] Implementation of Initiative Stage<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>This is great, thank you!<o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal>ענת קדם 0546236352<o:p></o:p></p></div></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><div><p class=MsoNormal>בתאריך יום ג׳, 31 בדצמ׳ 2019, 21:35, מאת Jeff Aitken <<a href="mailto:r.jeff.aitken@gmail.com">r.jeff.aitken@gmail.com</a>>:<o:p></o:p></p></div><blockquote style='border:none;border-left:solid #CCCCCC 1.0pt;padding:0in 0in 0in 6.0pt;margin-left:4.8pt;margin-right:0in'><div><p class=MsoNormal>Very good question.
