OpenWetWare steering committee/Community development ideas: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 18:53, 13 February 2006

Please post any ideas you have about OpenWetWare community development here.

An improved OpenWetWare:Community Portal would go a long way towards encouraging the growth of the "back-end" user community. We could use the wikipedia community portal as a model.

Can embed google video on a site (without even a google logo on it or anything) and they will stream for free, so we could host videos there if we wanted.
At the last steering committee meeting we brought up looking into the Singapore/MIT alliance rooms that already have the built-in AV equipment.

Not sure if this belongs here, but it would be great if we could get people to put at least a small amount of info on their user pages, particularly those who contribute regularly. I think accountability for/credibility of info on OWW kind of depends on this. Otherwise, we should just allow editing to be anonymous. Not too much info is required for this, just a short bit about who they are.--Kathleen
