OWW ideas (random)
building a stronger community
- get people to define on their User page their area(s) of interest using 'wiki-categories' (could help to find collaborators).
- if people defines their area of interest using references, would be interesting to use that information to match people's profiles.
support to find relevant info
- 'contextual' browsing ('hacking' google-ads-type-of-service to show other relevant wiki-pages or wiki-users on the side of a wiki page ... instead of ads).
- set essential keywords pages. 'Experts', in a given field, would recommend a set of keywords to help new comers to google more efficiently.
- setting-up a calendar with info about conferences, workshops, submission deadlines ...
adding features
- implementing java applets which are enable to read/write an xml-like format into the wiki:
- image annotation (microscope images, gel analysis, colonies plate ..) see iNote, SVG.
- graph editor/viewer to build/view/run kinetic models (SBML, CellML ...)

Here is an overview of the modelling framework I am working on:
