Hi Artur

During the 11th World OSonOS in “Swenmark” (2003) we used a wiki to capture proceedings and invite people to participate on distance during, before and after the event. The proceedings and the wiki is to be found among the other OSonOS proceedings on OSW.org

With assistance from Michael, Chris and others it worked wonderfully! I think.

Best regards

Thomas Herrmann

Dear Holger and others:

 

Thank you for creating the Wiki for WOSonOS 2010 online digital documentation.

 

I have already sighed in. But I would like to request to the two "note takers" of the two sessions I have convened, if they could be so kind to "interpret" their own characters and put the report in the Wiki. Thank you.

 

Anyhow, Holger, from your post it may seem that it is the first time the OST community is using Wikis. And it is not. 9 years ago, in 2001, Michael Herman created the space  <http://www.openspaceworld.net/> http://www.openspaceworld.net/, that was, and still is, a Wiki. In that same year, some of the "international language pages", then created, have used wikis, and the Iberian one still is in an wiki ( <http://www.openspaceworld.org/cgi/iberia.cgi?> http://www.openspaceworld.org/cgi/iberia.cgi?), now closed due to spam and short of resources to cleaning it up every day.

 

And in one of the two following years (I think the next one, but I am not sure), all the reports have been created directly in a wiki (that I cannot find anymore) where they could be edited and commented by anyone in the world in real time, thus giving the possibility to anyone that could not came to OSonOS to have a sense of what was happening and really commenting. (What can be more inclusive than that?). Maybe that could be something to have repeated in one (or both) of the two following WOSonOS's - next year in Chile and/or in London, in 2012...

 

Regards

 

Artur

Subject: Online WOSonOS Documentation

Dear WOSonOS participants and friends,

 

As we have announced in the action planning of the WOSonOS, we want to do an online documentation of the results of the WOSonOS. For that, we have created a Wiki. A Wiki is a document which we can edit all – it has the spirit of Open Space. Don’t worry, writing in a Wiki is as simple as writing in a Word document.

 

This is a great experiment – because not only the conveners but all participants can take responsibility to convert the handwritten materials into typed script. Let us do t like an Open Space – self-organized.

 

Please read the following instructions VERY CAREFULLY:

 

1.       We start with the documentation of the proceedings; the action planning will come a bit later.

2.       With a separate email, you will get an invitation for our Wiki (from the software company PbWorks). You will need to follow this invitation to create an account. Please be assured that your data are secure, this is a professional business version of a commercial programme.

3.       On the landing page (after you have created your account) you will find detailed instructions of how to proceed.

4.       If you absolutely don’t want to use the Wiki for any reason, you might also send us a Word file with the text you have typed.

5.       I made the status of all of you that of writers –meaning you cannot create or delete pages. If you want to be an editor, please let me know.

6.       There is also comment functions:  we can have discussions about all issues and continue the discussions of the WOSonOS.

7.       This will not work if we are not passionate about and if we don’t take our responsibility

 

 

With best regards

 

Holger Nauheimer
