Open, Self-Organizing Communities
Slide 11
“The great thing about open self-organizing communities is that spontaneous and more structured approaches can be nurtured in parallel with each other in the wiki.
The glue which keeps this together and provides positive direction for the WE project are our community values. Ultimately, the core value of sharing knowledge freely.”
-- Wayne Mackintosh, Ph.D. Founder, WikiEd Project
