I'm a little late to this conversation but I'd like to add my two
cents.
Thank you to all who hold space for the various ways that we are
able to connect our work to people that need it. And thank you to
Michael for the tireless work he does on the openspace world website.
No one controls the number one spot in Google. It's all about how
many people link to you. If you have quality stuff and people link
to it you'll go higher in the rankings. I have no doubt that the
ning site has all the potential to be number one and that would be
great. But let's be clear that there is no way to conspire to keep
others out of the top spots.
These strange personal attacks on the list do nothing to advance the
community's work. It is highly out of character for this community
to engage like this. I know everyone involved in this dispute
personally and I am having a hard time ascribing motives or squaring
what I am reading with what i know of these people personally.
We can all be prickly at times but is this a fight that is necessary
to have?
With gratitude for passion bounded by responsibility.
Chris

For what it is worth, I experience Michael's comments as name-
calling, denigrating, invalidating, dishonoring. I find myself
wishing he would make less attack statements and more 'I'
statements, telling us what he thinks and feels without attacking
others shared thoughts and feelings.

Subject: [OSLIST] re honouring each other
Hi Everyone,
I have been following this community for a while and will soon start
sharing info. Many thanks for all the enlivening info. I am grateful.
I feel the need to speak in response to Michael's comments re
Kaliya's
thoughts.
OST is about staying open and positive and welcoming of all
perspectives
and ideas, as I experience it. Critiquing and judging and saying
"no" to
ideas stops the new, constantly self-emerging outflowing of ideas
that is
creating a continual shared meaning among us all that excites me to
no
end.
All of Kaliya's ideas are valid.
Michael, may I suggest you own your own ideas more powerfully by
using
phrases like "in my opinion" or using the pronoun "I" rather than
"you"
when you share your own ideas.
...and on with the OST dance,
Sincerely,
Kathie Wallace
Vancouver, BC, Canada
