Wiki for Professionals

From OmegaWiki

Within domains, within professions the terminology used is often as bewildering as in a natural language. To fully appreciate the full depth of a concept it is often necessary to understand it in relation to other concepts as they are understood in that domain. Within OmegaWiki we concentrate on the basis information, in the Wiki for Professionals data specific to the domain will be maintained.

A successful Wiki for Professional will have its own community, it may require specific functionality. This is something that we welcome in our project as long as the it fits in in the overall environment.

To get the full benefit out of a Wiki for Professional, you will want to make use of the Desktop and the Semantic Support as it is provided to us by Knewco. This functionality is provided as Open Access and not as Open Content. These services are provided for free and, they are available on an opt in basis.

The Wiki for Professional, the Desktop, the Semantic Support and OmegaWiki are tightly integrated. At this stage there are only two organisations involved that have a need for shared information. As we are open to further cooperation, it will be necessary to have a better basis for sharing the personal information between organisations. It is for this reason that we are investigating the use of the A-Select software. This software provides an authentication framework. This in turn will allow us to define really well who and under what conditions has access to data that can be shared. Sharing of personal data will happen exclusively when we share the same Privacy Policy
