I did a search on CiteSeer (http://citeseer.nj.nec.com/), which gives me the following: Arie van Deursen, E. Visser: The reengineering wiki. Proceedings 6th European Conference on Software Maintenance and Reengineering (CSMR), pp. 217-220. IEEE Computer Society, 2002. (Abstract) "The ReverseEngineering and ReEngineering research communities have a strong tradition of collecting, organizing, and unifying research results. Typical examples include the ReverseAndReengineeringTaxonomy, dedicated web sites, the ReengineeringBibliography, as well as efforts in ExchangeFormats and tool evaluation. In this paper we describe and evaluate the use of a web authoring system to integrate such efforts. To that end, we propose the ''ReengineeringWiki'', which uses Wiki technology to enable web site visitors themselves to maintain and organize pages devoted to their topics of interest. This paper covers web authoring criteria, an introduction to wiki technology, typical wiki usage, and an evaluation of wiki-based systems. Moreover, the paper discusses the organization and contents of the Reengineering Wiki, and concludes with an invitation to participate in the Reengineering Wiki project." ---- Jonathan Rick, Mark Guzdial, Karen Carroll, Lissa Holloway-Attaway, Brandy Walker: Collaborative Learning at Low Cost: CoWeb Use in English Composition. CSCL20002. Boulder, CO, January 2002. (Quote) "CoWeb is conceptually based on the WikiWikiWeb (or Wiki) by Ward Cunningham. The Wiki is a web-site that invites all users to edit any page within the site and add new pages using only a common web browser; the text is edited in an HTML text area without special applets or plug-ins. The Wiki is an unusual collaboration space in its total freedom, ease of access and use, and lack of structure. The Wiki is inherently democratic: every user has exactly the same capabilities as any other user. Like the Wiki, CoWeb looks like a fairly traditional web-site, except that every page has a set of buttons at the top that allow the user to do various things such as edit the page, (un)lock the page, or view the history of the page over time. Links between pages are easily created by referencing pages within the same site by name (e.g., *Page Name*). If a page with the given name doesn't already exist, a create link shows up next to the name upon save; clicking on this creates the new page (see Figure 1). CoWeb shares Wiki's democratic philosophy of equal power to all users. Though our usage is mostly set in classes, where there is someone in charge (the instructor), we find little reason to give more interface power to the instructor than to the students. The instructor naturally has social power that does not need to be reinforced by the interface. As one professor commented: "I just like the interaction that it enables. It's basically a whiteboard that everyone can write on. Protections are always kind of a pain." " ---- M. Guzdial: Collaborative websites to support an authoring community on the Web.

XP Universe Conference, Raleigh, NC, July 2001. (Quote) "It is important to understand that there are several environmental differences between an industry team using XP and using it for a University course. One of the most significant, mentioned in the previous section, is that much less time is spent together as a group. Indeed there was not much adequate time to discuss user stories, particularly during the first part of the semester when most of the class time was used presenting and discussing the XP practices. This problems was partially solved by creating a user-story Wiki. The Wiki allowed students to enter stories, edit existing stories, make comments, sign up for stories, and mark stories as completed." ---- Mark Guzdial: Using Squeak for Teaching User Interface Software. Technical Report #00-17. GVU Center, Atlanta, Georgia, 2000. (Quote) "One of the tools that we use in _Objects and Design_ is the _CoWeb_ (Collaborative Website), aslo known as _Swiki_, since it's a Squeak interpretation of Ward Cunningham's WikiWiki Web. The CoWeb is perhaps the simplest possible collaboration tool: Every page is editable by anyone (via an edit link on the page), and anyone can easily create new pages and links between pages. By typing *A New Page* on any page, a new page is created and linked in with the name A New Page. Surprisingly, such a structure does _not_ lead to anarchy. Instead, it is now in use by some 120 groups at Georgia Tech, across ten servers, and is being adopted by other schools around the world. We use the CoWeb in several ways in _Objects and Design_.

"Many of the systems described above support only annotations to web pages, whereas Pink supports not only web page annotation but also embedded annotation to documents, such as WikiWiki documents, created within the system." ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Furthermore, I found a mention of: B.
