Collaboration to me is a process of working together to achieve a
shared goal. For WikiEd, the shared goal is to develop free content
for supporting learning at different levels and different subject
domains. As a community we have started on this path, and agreed to
create content that shall be avialable for free on the WikiEd
platform. There are different stages of development for the end users,
but as a community we should be at one stage. May be we are now in the
training stage, and therefore not much collaboration is visible. So,
it is too early to ask for too much. But, there is nothing wrong in
asking for more, and Randy has rightly started this discussion. How do
we measure collaboration? Some indicators are:

* Number of edits on contents created by others
* More discussion on the discussion pages
* Groups commited to develop content on a particular area and
continusouly working on it
* More useful content rated by the community
* And many more...

At the present stage of development, we are only adding content to
WikiEd as individuals. More collaboration will start, once we develop
the rating system/ feature article system/ or flagging. Collboration
as a learning opportunity leads to negotiated understanding.

with regards, Sanjaya
