My pleasure, Peggy. Of course!

The challenge is usually moving quickly enough to make everyone a co-host, and the changes that come with being a co-host, for example, co-hosts can’t raise their hands. They can however do lots of other things that can be disruptive. :-) So you have to let people know what’s happening right up front ?- ask them not to have fun (just kidding - that would be an open invitation! :-) and click all the new shiny toys they see :-) and give them an alternative to raising their “blue” hand if hand-raising is needed.

Hugs,

Amy

Thanks for that reassurance Amy. I was in an OS run by the Art of Hosting network in March shortly after shelter in place began around the globe. The group was at the 100 person limit and they ran into a problem making everyone a cohost. So I was spooked by that.

I have been hosting Open Space in Zoom for years, and have never experienced a limit on the number of co-hosts. As recently as last Tuesday, I tech-hosted OS for 75 people on Zoom without a glitch.

Hi all,

Another aspect of preparing for the online OpenSpace is figuring out which hack to use so that people can move between breakout groups. The route we are looking at is making everyone cohosts. I had read on this list that there was a limit to the number of cohosts at 50 75. I was looking at Zoom support and saw a statement that there is no limit:

The host must?. There is no limitation on the number of co-hosts you can have in a meeting or webinar.

Do you think they removed the limitation with the latest update? Does anyone know?

Thanks,

Peggy
