“KWARC was!”

Our paper on “CoPit – the community of practice toolkit based on semantically marked up artifacts” received one of the best paper awards at the 1st World Summit of the Open Knowledge Society, Athens, 24-26 September 2008: The paper scored 2nd in the track “Social & Humanistic Computing for the Knowledge Society: Emerging Technologies and Systems for the Society and Humanity”.

At the beginning I was confused that there were several best paper awards for each conference track (altogether 10?). But having a broader recognition of contribution, actually allows a much better overview on the conference’s focus and expectations. Below I am listing the best papers of WSKS 2008 (list is not yet complete).
