a ui-per-user

describes a per user conference management system by following some deepamehta II ui principles

 since this idea is deeply related to the goals of the deepamehta foundation
 i will suggest to the managing board members to foster developments in this direction for the core of v3

a (un) conference is often hard to organize especcialy when it comes to different persons having individual "needs/requirements" towards the organizers of a conference (e.g. "privacy", "scheduling","preparation") the ui-per-user approach is about how to facilitate the organizing of a gathering which gives the participant more control about his (digital) participation in such a (e.g. open hypertext) system through letting the user create, structure, document and share views on topics, outcomes and ides.

therefore it should support

  • a fine-grained networked presentation and documentation process
  • exchange of mappings along with all their published content
  • constructive browsing on published maps for non-participants
  • a map about what is going on where now
  • interfaces to e.g. pentabarf
  • the work of a "trailblazer" (v.bush)

the use case description needs to wait here, just wanted to drop an idea spinning around my head since i talked to m. earlier this year.

building and using such a tool, would be fun for me.
