Just a quick note to say I visited the Knowledge Media Institute (KMI) at the Open University earlier this week to record a lecture, and also had an opportunity to spend some time talking Wookie development with Thomas and Lukas, who have done some interesting stuff with Wookie for their projects involving LSA and all kinds of other goodies, including an enhanced Elgg plugin using the PHP connector framework.
Anyway, I know they are both reading this so hope they can share with the community some of the extensions they've made to Wookie :-) While I was there we also had chance to talk about the whole area of widget stores: things like searching, tagging, reviews and ratings. We've mostly kept away from that kind of functionality within the Wookie core (except for services, which are basically tags, and which don't feel quite right), but its come up in several places now. Should we look at developing a "white label app store" over the top of (one or more) Wookie/Shindig servers as a separate project? Or would it fit better in Rave? S
