    Here you will find all info collected about Open Space Technology

http://www.openspaceworld.org/cgi/wiki.cgi?
How it works?
More or less
In a big assembley all together, people who is interested in an issue,
makes a proposal to debate. the different issues split in different
assembleys, always open and follow this lines. The ones who propose,
facilitate that space. The rest go to the different spaces depending on
their interests. At the end everyone converges in one big assembley and
share the results
Those are the "anti-rules" of the open space
1. The people who are there are the right ones
2. What is going to happen is the only thing that can happen
3. Whenever it starts is the right moment
4. When it is over, is over

And the most important: *The two feet rule*: If you feel you are not
learning from or giving something to the space you are, just move your two
feet to another space.

The advantages of proposing just an open space is that everything fits
there.
As well, it is flexible and depends only on the people participating,
whoever they are. So it helps with the not-predictible charachter of the
forum we are facing
The aggutination process we've been talking about will fit as well in this
structure. If a group prepares something it can have an space. But as well
is adaptable to spontaneous facts.
It works with large and small groups, so it doesn't matter how many people
comes.
It helps with translations as the groups become smaller


That is why I was asking if something like this could be registered, it
will help to leave open the agglutination process to the very last minute

Any qüestions, please ask!

Best,
Jeza

    I have heard about it being used before, and the feedback was very positive. 
I would be very interested in trying to use this as the way of facilitating at least one of the big assemblies we might be doing.
