2009:

 

Wagn ran the conference wiki — http://2009rcc.org/

 

Idea to show other user editing when in a conflict.

2008:

Ludovic of XWiki:

Liked everything a card; also confusing, need to hide in some places.

Need custom UI in many places anyway.

Newton: Draw a diagram of relationship among: card, relative inclusion, Cardtype, forms

 

=====

 

At RecentChangesCamp 2007 in Portland, we did speed intros.

Typical intro:
* Wiki is to word processing what Wagn is to database - users can evolve data structures over time, step by step, rather than having to sit down with a database designer, figure it all out in advance and be more or less stuck with it.
* cards rather than pages; each page has a bunch of cards.
* connections/connection cards - like fields of the card you're on.
* ease of editing
* data types, validation
* card types -> tag cloud when creating new cards
* ask if people want to play with it later, and invite them to wagn.org on the spot.
