Roles

Every cell needs to have individuals who take the lead on documentation, design, implementation, and evaluation, even though each of these activities is likely to be collaborative. Those individuals in our cell are:

Documentation Design Implementation Evaluation
Matt, Greg Bob, Stan, Stefan James, Joe, Bill John

Responsibilities

Responsible for thinking about effective social software and feature requests to support collaboration, both within the MONK project and in the larger community, including its relationship to other social software tools (e.g., Zotero) and other digital humanities venues (e.g., TAPoR). Also other evangelical duties and functions, including MONK's public Web presence.

Initial Milestones

  • Public web presence for MONK
  • Survey MONK's neighborhood: what other tools or environments are out there that MONK might want to integrate with?
  • Propose specifications and use-cases for saving and sharing worksets, results, etc.
  • Propose feed-formats for results (RSS?)
  • Propose gate-keeping mechanisms for creating and managing sub-communities of users
