Day Two will be devoted to open space.  Some of the open space sessions have been assigned rooms and posted on the Open Space Scheduling Board to accommodate AV needs.  All of the open space sessions will be announced at the start of Open Space.  You can get a sneak preview of some of the contributions by visting the community contributions abstracts (http://www.leadershiplearning.org/creating_space/2007/learning.html).  Much of what will be offered during open space will emerge spontaneously. Perhaps these early offerings will stimulate your own ideas or help you to think before hand about  when you want to offer in open space to take full advantage of other sessions you would like to attend.
