Hi everyone, I think people have had enough time to see how wiki pages work internally
http://adjani.astro.uni.torun.pl:9673/zwicky/
and how they work externally where anybody at all with internet access can modify pages
So I think it's time to have some open zwiki (or other wiki software) pages on adjani for organising things like:
- cosmic topology research - cosmic standard ruler stuff - OCRA coordination - other research projects - cosmo/extragalactic session at http://www.pta.edu.pl/zjazd - other conferences
where there's no point creating a new password for everyone who might want to make a comment or change something.
So this is my proposal. Please provide comments, a modified, improved version of the proposal, or if you really think this goes against the purpose of why we are here - observational cosmology research - then you may *block* the proposal, but in that case you take responsibility for having blocked. (This is the style of consensus decision-making, for anyone who forgot...)
pozdrawiam boud
********************************************************************** PROPOSAL for open (z)wiki pages. DECISION DEADLINE Mon 7 July 2003
It is proposed to have some wiki pages, separate from the present pages
http://adjani.astro.uni.torun.pl:9673/zwicky/
For example, with a name
http://adjani.astro.uni.torun.pl:9673/open/
to make it clear that it's an open zwiki.
The purpose will be to organise things like
- cosmic topology research - cosmic standard ruler stuff - OCRA coordination - other research projects - cosmo/extragalactic session at http://www.pta.edu.pl/zjazd - other conferences
where cosmologists (faculty, postdocs, students) from outside of TCfA will be able to contribute to pages, update them, etc. Although hypothetically this means that web surfers might write rubbish on the pages, in practice there will hopefully be enough real cosmology users on the pages that any rubbish will quickly be removed by the real users. The example of http://pl.wikipedia.org shows that this is possible and practical, with good results.
