[PLUG-Devel] The PLUGdev Project Candidate list - what only 4?

[Brian Cluff]

I'm kinda chiming in late, but I thought I would put my 2 cents in for 
Semantik http://www.freehackers.org/~tnagy/kdissert.html formally known 
as kdissert.

Particularly, in expanding the program to become collaborative.

If you don't know what it is, it's a very unique program that looks a 
lot like a mindmapping program or a flow charting program but what it 
really does it let you write documents very quickly in a visual manner. 
  The final output is a nicely formatted open/libreoffice document, 
presentation, or web page.

I have also found it to be an incredibly useful program for taking notes 
in planning meetings.  I can almost always take very organized notes 
that are better than what the secretary will usually create at a later 
date for distribution, but have them in real time, more accurate and 
better formatted.

As is, it's an incredibly useful program.  If someone were to make it 
collaborative so that many people could work on the same document at the 
same time, it would be a "killer app" for business with nothing else out 
there like it.
