RE: WiKi usage for ITS WG

Hi Masaki,
 
That is an interesting idea.
I can see the benefits. But I can also see a few drawbacks. For example, emails
allow to keep an history of things. It would be different with a Wiki.
 
But it's certainly worth exploring.
Let me look more into this.
 
Cheers,
-yves

Subject: WiKi usage for ITS WG



Hi Yves

 

We just wrapped up the conference call, during which I proposed to use some sort
of public Web-based discussion board. Richard and Andrzej talked about WiKi, and
especially Andrzej stressed that the usage of WiKi in TWS WG is successful in
documentation out of WiKi content as well as facilitating discussions. Do you
think you could explorer for setting up WiKi (provided through W3C -- Richard, I
believe that you said you were using that in another WG in W3C) for ITS? 

 

The reason why I'm talking about such a Web-based discussion is because I'm not
a big fan of exchanging hundreds of emails for discussion. If it's not too big a
deal to set up WiKI (or any other type of Web-based discussion tool), I would
really appreciate it. Please let me know if I could be of help on this matter. 

 

Thank you.
