Toward Cooperatively-Built Knowledge Repositories

After noting that informal documents and formal knowledge bases are far from ideal for discussing or retrieving technical knowledge, we propose mechanisms to support the sharing, re-use and cooperative update of semi-formal semantic networks, assign values to contributions and credits to the contributors. We then propose ontological elements to guide and normalize the construction of such knowledge repositories, and an approach to permit the comparison of tools or techniques.
