Dear Chris and Eva, As we all know QA purpose is to make sure that what is done 
suits what we plan. The assumption is that what we plan is the best choice. But 
what happens when the image that we have, translated to a plan is misleading? 
What happens when we do not know in advance what`s best?

  Hi Chris and thank you for quick answer!!!

  I agree with you that Open Space go beyond quality assurance and of course QA 
is about control. J 

  And we cannot control the process or the outcome - that we know - but I am 
more thinking about the format. The way we are working with "it". Preparation 
meeting, the OS meeting itself, and follow up meeting. And I was thinking about 
that exactly this - our world wide community with over 500 persons developing, 
sharing, "arguing" about how to do, and why to do, and the best way to do etc 
etc - couldn't we call that QA??

  Cheers from a late evening in the west coast of Sweden (where we for the 
moment are hosts for the European Championship in athletics!)

  :o)

  I think Open Space transcends quality assurance.  It's a tricky thing, but to 
my mind quality assurance is about control.  How can you assure quality when 
whatever happens is the only thing that could have?

  You might instead write in the proposal about both/and.  In your project you 
might use quality assurance processes to do some things, but then use Open 
Space to ask the question, what else can we be?  What are the areas of 
qualities that we don;t know about?  How much better can we get? 

  And the answers to these questions are "we don't know."  Your proposal then 
becomes about why this is a GOOD thing.

  Cheers,

  Chris

  Hello out there!

  I am in the middle of writing a public procurement and will of course suggest 
Open Space as one way of working. One of the questions they are asking is about 
quality assurance - In my mind for example the way we operate here on this 
list, on our OS on OS's is really quality assurance! 

  What do you think, how would you express a question about how we work with 
quality assurance for open space??

  Looking forward to hear your thoughts!

  All the best
