Meeting September 21, 2006
Barbara, Siva, Alex, Stacy, Ben, Mandy, and Ted met on Thursday, September 21st at 12 pm.
A number of issues were discussed including
- the degree to which the wiki should be public or private
- whether anyone can edit/add to the wiki, or if a subset of all users (example: NYU students) would be the primary editors
- the various phases of development of the project
- if the project is appropriate for use in History of Comm, and/or what needs to be modified to make it appropriate for classroom use
- more points that people want to add???
- the site / and research could very much be driven by the interface....... I therefore would suggest collaborating with max and creating a choice of potential opening pages
split into two initiatives?
