Tcon 08-28-2009

Attending: David, David, Ron

  1. Ron should have a tcon next week with Roberta and Sally to discuss the technical issues around the creation of a wiki server and the software to be used. It would probably be sensible to ask Peter Seres to participate in that as well.
  2. Ron would use this information to develop with the Central Office an action plan for the development and implementation of an MR wikipedia - including some of the options (and an idea of related resource and costs) he suggested for future expansion - a publication database and more complex media display - - based on his experience with his slicer development (Ron will send some links on this)./
  3. The issues of governance probably to be addressed by an editorial board - engaging members with responsibility for particular areas - this could be put together with help from the publications cttee - and also by direct invitation to the membership themselves. Controversy is to be expected, anticipated and planned for.
  4. There is a good case for making the wiki open to the public early on - and Ron will make these points in the Action Plan as the Board and Exec will no doubt want to understand these issues before applying the brand name.
  5. The action plan could be circulated past the web services committee in the next few weeks for comments and suggestions and then we could hopefully start to implement something.
