A New Generation Wiki for Supporting a Research Community in Creativity and IT</a>." Based on their abstract (excerpt below) it sounds like they are trying to develop a wiki framework that would be a boon to oww. Should we touch base with them?

the integration (not just attachment) of other forms of media ranging
from movies and animations, to sharing of datasets, to the creation and
utilization of social network information to support community
interaction, to conceptual mind-mapping media.<br></div><br>Mac<br><div style="margin-left: 40px;"> </div>
