WikiSym 2008: 2 Weeks Left for WikiFest & Other Submissions

The deadline for submitting posters, demos, WikiFest proposals, and DoctoralSpace proposals is open and due in about 2 weeks.

We’ve had an excellent response in terms of paper submissions! Now, there’s just a short time left for other submissions. I want to see your best wiki uses, practices, and examples for WikiFest.

Please get in touch via wikifest (at) wikisym.org or leave a comment on this post with information about what you’d like to present, and I’ll get back to you.

  1. I’ve been working with an international group of Outward Bound schools to build a database of best practices using mediawiki as the base. This after a failed ‘intra-net’ deployment that didn’t do what they wanted it to do.

    I’ve pasted the wiki into the ‘website’ field with this comment.

    There are several talented and skilled wiki-weavers who have bringing together a global network to make this happen and it’s been quite successful.

    Is that the kind of thing that would be interesting to share at this conference?
