I am so interested in the discussions surrounding these topics– (particularly “How to Transform a Town Using Open Space Tech.” and “Ways of Using Open Space to Weave Community..”) –will you be posting any more notes? I very much want to hear/read people’s thoughts on this!

Hi Julie,
The proceedings for the conference haven’t been sent out yet, but the best way to find out when they’re distributed is probably via the international OS Listserv - are you subscribed to that?
If not, this is where you go to subscribe (and to view the archives of the List): http://www.openspaceworld.org/oslist
cheers!
