Greetings, I have rather limited experience. In a recent session I facilitated for a fairly small group of 20-25 we had set up 5 spaces and 3 time slots. The group came up with 22 topics. They were able to manage by creating new spaces and/or combining topics. Two lessons I learned from the experience were that the people usually can solve problems in open space w/o my help and be sure to have the convenors put their names on their topic to facilitate negotuion among convenors.
I do invite the convenors to find whatever space they would like if the identified spaces are filled or not to their taste.

Thanks for any input.
