[Grassroots-l] ProjectDB and management tools for Pilots/Projects

[Seth Woodworth]

SJ, Pia Waugh, and I had a very interesting conversation tonight about
organizing projects and proposals via a web interface such as Austria's
ProjectDB (http://projectdb.olpc.at).  While I think that there are several
more things that the wiki can and should be doing via Semantic MediaWiki,
there are several things that wiki will never be able to do.

There is a growing need for some project/proposal management tools that are
a little smarter about keeping private information private, which is the
current use of the ProjectDB.  There are several ways that ProjectDB could
be expanded and used by individual OLPC groups (like olpc.org.au).

We're going to have an open meeting on the subject at:

* 23:00 Friday, August 15th, UTC
**9:00AM Sat .au
**6:00PM Fri .us

Reply to this thread if you would prefer IRC or Phone and some brief
thoughts on the subject.

All the best,
Seth Woodworth
