| ==Software development==
| | :*[[OpenWetWare:Steering committee/Meeting - June 2008|Notes from June 2008 meeting]] |
| In order to facilitate user interactions with OpenWetWare, we would like to establish a UROP position to work on a variety of software tools:
| | :*[[OpenWetWare:Steering committee/Meeting - May 2008|Notes from May 2008 meeting]] |
| #Tools to simplify data entry into the wiki
| | :*[[OpenWetWare:Steering committee/Meeting - April 2008|Notes from Apr 2008 meeting]] |
| #*'''Word''' - word macro to convert formatting to wiki markup. Improve the html->wiki markup scripts
| | :*[[OpenWetWare:Steering committee/Meeting - March 2008|Notes from Mar 2008 meeting]] |
| #*'''Excel''' - improve the CSV-> wiki markup converter. Add support for chart addition.
| | :*[[OpenWetWare:Steering committee/Meeting - February 2008|Notes from Feb 2008 meeting]] |
| #*'''Powerpoint''' - Auto-image saving and uploading of slides. Transfer of slides to word files and then convert to wiki markup.
| | :*[[OpenWetWare:Steering committee/Meeting - January 2008|Notes from Jan 2008 meeting]] |
| #*'''LaTeX''' - expanded math support. LaTeX->wiki converter.
| | :*[[OpenWetWare:Steering committee/Meeting - December 2007|Notes from Dec 2007 meeting]] |
| #**Check out [http://wikitex.org/ wikitex] and a [http://wikisophia.org/wiki/Wikitex demo page] --[[User:Austin|Austin]] 15:25, 20 December 2005 (EST)
| | :*[[OpenWetWare:Steering committee/Meeting - November 2007|Notes from Nov 2007 meeting]] |
| #*'''Images''' - expanded image format support, automated uploading of sets of images.
| |
| #* For further information see this [[Converting documents to mediawiki markup | page]] on existing document converters.
| |
| #Tools to map wiki pages onto static websites.
| |
| #*Further automate the existing script.
| |
| #*Include CC license information on each dynamically created page.
| |
| #*Automatically set page width to an appropriate value.
| |
| #Login
| |
| #*Add support for MIT certificates.
| |
| #*Write script to automatically create login accounts based on a list of email addresses in CSV format.
| |
| #Tools to integrate permanent and evolving documents.
| |
| #*Discussion pages for DSpace documents
| |
| #*Markup for [[DOI|DOI]]'s (just as there is markup for urls and wiki pages)
| |
| Ideally, we hope to coordinate with the MediaWiki open source community on tools that are likely to be of general use to the community (MediaWiki is the open source software that OpenWetWare is based on).

| ==Community Development==
| | :* OWW Town Hall Meetings are held on the 2nd Thursday of every month. For information, visit the [[OpenWetWare:Steering_committee/Town Hall Meeting|Town Hall Meeting]] page. (Note: to view the meeting page, click on the calendar date.) |
| The success of OpenWetWare depends critically on cultivating and maintaining an active user base. We plan to dedicate funds to enable tutorials, conference visits, advertising, and other mechanisms for recruiting new users to OpenWetWare.
| |
|
| |
|
| Finally, we want to begin an OpenWetWare seminar series hosted at MIT. This series would discuss perspectives on open practices and communities in science. We feel this would be important for two reasons. First, it would highlight groups and individuals in science actively striving to accomplish some of the same goals as those of OpenWetWare (e.g. PLoS, Science Commons, etc.) Second, it would provide an amazing opportunity before every talk to introduce OpenWetWare to others.

| ==Promotional Material/Advertising==

| In order to help promote OpenWetWare, we will need a range of promotional material including business cards, information pamphlets, posters and banners.

| ==Data management==
| |
| In the long term, the success of OpenWetWare relies on the assumption that the number of users actively curating the information of OpenWetWare will scale with the amount of content generated. However, there has been little work to examine how collaborative tools can best be used to develop information resources, such as the OpenWetWare protocol collection. We believe the project would benefit dramatically from the active establishment of community standards for organizing content in OpenWetWare. We will establish a UROP position to evaluate and implement templates and other methods for organizing information in OpenWetWare.

| ==Integration with laboratory classes==
| |
| To complement its mission to promote an open culture in biological science and engineering, OpenWetWare will be integrated into the curriculum of laboratory classes. As a pilot experiment, MIT's [[BE.109 | BE.109 Laboratory fundamentals of biological engineering]] will be relying heavily on OpenWetWare to disseminate course content and to serve as a shared space for students, TA's and instructors to communicate.
