Hey Thomas,
nice to meet you here again : ) Thank you and Bhavesh for the answer. Looks very useful. I will try it!

Is there an all in one solution, readily prepared for online open spaces? I need it for less and for more, than 50 people.

And on that note I might suggest that "getting the whole system in the room" (Marv Weisbord's phrase) is certainly related to the idea of diversity -- but not quite the same thing a my meaning when I described "diversity" as one of the critical five preconditions for self organization. My understanding of diversity may be achieved when "all who care" are there (for the OS). "Caring" is the operative word. Putting it simply: "If you care, you got to be there." "Those who care might include: The whole system, less than the whole system, or more. I've had the experience (as I am sure you have as well, Michael) when total onlookers, just casual observers, suddenly discover that they have an interest, some input -- and actually care. Sometimes they just stand in the doorways, but on occasion they just moved right in and took over -- to the benefit of everybody. Why or how -- who knows??? But they cared! I've seen this happen often enough that I added another little reminder to myself and whomsoever..."Honor the Stranger." They always show up and their gifts can be extravagant. Strangers in out midst is by no means a bad thing.

For me, it is (was) THE worldwide place for reflecting and learning and unfolding about my working and living as an os facilitator... in addition to my regular interaction in local, regional and worldwide OSonOS, including the Stammtische in Berlin (inactive for the duration of physical contact restrictions with the hope that the WOSonOS in Berlin in October of this year will be possible and, of course, Stammtische again...). Looking at the 5 or so prerequisites for the unfolding of selforganisation (the center of my craft), I have always looked specifically at "diversity" (or as some say "getting the whole system in the room") and advocated that our os-exchanges would profit from high diversity as far as participants are concerned. I always felt that "diversity" was one of the prerequisites that we have some influence in. For instance, who all we would invite to our events (including OSLIST). Looking at that aspect, diversity can be expanded in the same way as we suggest to our clients. Usually, we ask some simple questions in the planning stage of an event, such as "who all needs to be at the event to increase the chance for fullfilling both our aspirations we have around the "burning business issue" and the chance for action on the stuff that we feel needs to be taken?". Often, I have found that in answering this question some pretty relevant groups were not in focus, such as "the customer" which, in a school setting, might be the students, in a parish the folks that attend the worships, in a company that specialises on "customer tailored nutritional products" the consumers of those products... or, in an os for the future of an NGO the folks that provide the finances or the government agencies that are needed for cooperation or the competitors in the same or related fields. Now, my and the efforts of others to increase "diversity" in "our" events have been only partially successful. Asking ourselves the "diversity" question certainly surface those that should be invited. For an Open Space Learning Exchange or other events we invite to for reflection and learning etc. that might be: --- our clients --- children --- scholars, scientists, researchers --- facilitators of all kinds --- caterers --- facility managers --- event managers in hotels etc. where os events take place --- journalists (newspapers, scientific journals, radio, TV, internet...) --- non-facilitators that are curious --- former participants of os events --- writers that have produced works around ost --- --- If we had a planning meeting, this list would certainly be expanded. In this spirit, we would help expand time and space for selforganisation... any time, corona, war, hurricanes, climate change, you name it... even in peace and other happy times. Apart from expanding on this I presently am participating in efforts in my immediate familiy, our neighborhood, in Berlin and so on, to slow down the spread of Corona to find ways to live with it. Personally, I am enjoying some of the side effects of the presently challenging situation: practically no contrails over Berlin with clear skies and many more stars than usual, the reduction of noise (hardly any cars), the enormous unfolding of actions in civil society... in the face of closed schools, limiting contact restrictions, a dearth of protective masks, shortage of toilet paper... what have you.
