		<description>Hi All --

There's a kind of Wiki on the web with a new twist -- it supports *executable* English content.  

What does that mean, you may well ask.

Right.  You can use a browser to write and run applications, in the form of business rules in open vocabulary, executable English.  (The syntax is largely open too.)

As befits a Wiki, shared use is *free*.  Just point a browser to reengineeringllc.com .

(Martin -- would folks be interested in a Tuesday meeting around this topic?)

Apologies to folks who have seen this before. Thanks for comments -- on this blog, or to internet.business.logic@gmail.com .</description>

		<description>Adrian added:

In a nutshell, the big, (very)long-term goal of Debatum is to create a
comprehensive reference of controversial ideas and the related
knowledge. A reader should be able to quickly grasp the best arguments
of each side, and get the picture of where this debate fits in the
much larger context of the related debates and ideas.

For the short-term we want to build a critical mass of reference
articles/debates to serve as the model, and at the same time, refine a
set of guiding principles in building Debatum. At the meeting I will
present my initial vision of article's layout - with a few examples,
and my initial set of principles.

One of the most difficult question I could receive is: "why not do
this in Wikipedia?", but I think I have some good answers to that.
Looking forward to other difficult questions and... arguments from
you...</description>
