The Planetary System
The Planetary System is a math-enabled Web 3.0 information portal -- as such it combines the social, user generated Web (Web 2.0) with semantic features. The Planetary System can be instantiated by a user community to individual "planets" that aggregate material on a specific topic of joint interest. These sites (e.g. PlanetMath or planetGenCS) allow community members to access, interact with, discuss, create, and enhance knowledge items, creating a joint knowledge resource. The main difference between sites like these, and Web 2.0 portals like Wikipedia, is that the planets concentrate on semantic interactions and scientific topics (where semantic annotations of complex objects is worthwhile). We have support for a growing collection of cool and useful Features and various public Demos. ...more info
Planetary Development
Development of the Planetary System started in August 2010 by enthusiasts from Jacobs University and the Knowledge Media Institute at The Open University. We are in the process of completing the Alpha milestones, where the basic functionality of the system is assembled from the parts and tested in experimental installations. See the release plan for further information. Planetary is free/open source software, available via the Planetary Repository. Further documentation is available here. We value your feedback, and help, please feel free join the mailing list or register for the TRAC to get more involved ... people, Administrativa, Meetings
