What if when participants co-created the Agenda in the morning you said 'and now we are about to start our sessions - if you have a topic that comes up for you, you can certainly post it - but realize it will not get this same kind of focus as it will at this moment.' (same thought as Harri

This also brings to mind one aspect of Open Space that might be worth reflecting on. Open Space Events begin with a marketplace - a wonderful rush of self-organising energy that results in a "programme" - often a packed one, set up for the whole day ahead (if it is a one-dayer). Often this program
