Opening the Space
Great question! I can imagine an invitation to post what's up for people
in the moment, with no obligation to actually host a session come face to
face time. I can see it creating a pre-conference buzz and people being
fed by seeing each other's topics. After all, the space opens the moment
the idea to come together occurs.
Better, as Michael Herman suggested, inviting people into finding out who
is coming and what they care about is a great idea! There's a piece of
software I recently learned about that is great for this:

Subject: [OSLIST] Question - using a wiki to post OS topics before Opening
the Space
Hello All! Happy New Year!
A question for you: I've seen a couple of conferences use a wiki, in
advance, to let people declare topics they think they might propose for
discussion.
As a facilitator, I balked at this. Now, as a sponsor, I see two sides of
it: on the one hand, it could encourage people to attend, and help them
think about their own topics. On the other hand, it happens before
opening the space, and could undermine the self-organization that
normally happens after the opening.
Has anyone thought about this? What are your own reflections?
Thanks
deb
