FLOSS Manuals does the kind of collaborative writing and editing you
propose, with a wiki-like editing interface and a chat channel open on
the same Web page. It is extremely productive, and produces results of
high quality, according to us and to our reviewers. I haven't seen it

Wikilog looks like a nice wiki-centric solution.

Hi Chris, Valery and Kirby
The planetplanet software is great and well aligned with our open community
values :-)
I don't see any issues with installing this as a WikiEducator subdomain.
This will be great way for aggregating blog-feeds about WikiEducator from
our community members.

I would assume this is an easy task for some of the technical people
involved in wikieducator.

Yes, your solution looks great and has clear advantages. What do we

There was some interest a couple of months ago, but not much action.
If this is easy to initiate, I'm happy to work on it.

It sure is! The only thing you need is an automated way to post new
entries, that facilitates comments from readers, and so forth -- and
that's exactly what we're talking about here.
You sound like a great candidate

Phil,
Your rants most surely /are/ a blog. I had always thought that was your
intent! :D You were, in fact, the first person I thought of when this
discussion began. I think you will get quite a lot of use out of this
feature.

Hi Phil, any piece of thought or information you circulate or publish
online, on your liberty and responsibility, can form your Blog, provided,
you should have at least one landing page to link them, and that page will
be the home for your Blog.

Hi Valerie, Ray
There are a fair number of folk who blog and reference WikiEducator --- You
can get some indication by using "Wikeducator" as a search term at sites
like Technorati.
We have a page where some folk have aggregated their RSS feeds on this page:
