Wiki Training Session for Openlaw.PH

The UP Law Internet and Society Program has recently launched an initiative (http://openlaw.ph) to harness web technology, particularly wikis and blogs, to enable collaboration on legal education and research. Pursuant to this, we are conducting a 3-hour training session on Saturday, June 16, 2005 at Computer Room, UP College of Law Library from 9am to 12 noon. The training session would cover the subtleties of using, editing, and maintaining a wiki. Dominique Cimafranca, renowned Information Technology trainor and Open Source Software evangelist, will facilitate the event.

We're inviting web nuts, preferably those with blogging experience and some HTML-fu, to attend the session. Although the first phase of the project involves only legal research for VOIP issues, long term goals include a Wikipedia-like resource for law students and barristers.
