Hi Michael, Re: the jumble on the page, yep. But I do like to see if any of these widgets has legs. Thanks for this. I'll keep staring at it from time to time until I see what order might be the best orientation/layout.

Guilty as charged sir. Give me a bit. Wikis are cumbersome. I'm more at home editing videos. It's only that I'm across a lot of overlapping conversations (in lots of languages) and this WC3 doc popped up because I was thinking about how the OER foundation and many other related "open access" initiatives might come together. E.g. http://www.w3.org/community/ There's a lot of "community building" going on around the traps, each with their preferred (singular) tool and approach. I agree with you about successful content on wikis being set up as a complete project. The problem we do have in the edu and gov worlds is getting global groups/communities together. Obviously everyone has a preference for tools, and until now that's been a main aggregator. Getting an attractive (easy to use) combination together is difficult.There's also a discussion going on over at wikimedia foundation about the different policies that are required for wikiuni = one open to everyone, one for specialized peers. Trying to figure out where a social network finishes and an LMS starts is quite a challenge, eh? Anyway, thanks for this page. It's one that I'll use as a mental anchor.
