That looks like the paper I read a preview copy of a few months ago at
a wiki-meetup! I remember thinking much the same thing as David
(Gerard) at the time, along the lines of "this is great stuff!". :-)

Forwarding from foundation-l.
David - thanks for the heads-up; this essay is brilliant, and not just
about biology.

Magnus - I see your hand in this :-) I'd love to see the edit

the major wikis?

Why are there any experts on Wikipedia?
I predict Wikipedia's biology articles will far outshine its
philosophy articles for the simple fact that the biologists bother:

(That article is great, by the way. It gives strong reasons for
experts to put in the effort to bother.)
