[okfn-discuss] Open Shakespeare improvements

Tue Jun 23 11:29:52 UTC 2009

This summer there's a plan to work on open shakespeare in association
with some student volunteers from University of Cambridge. Discussion
and planning is going on here (participation welcome!):

<http://wiki.okfn.org/p/Open_Shakespeare>

Things we plan to look:

  * Adding critical notes and word glosses to a text (Hamlet)
  * Introductions and summaries for plays
  * Word of the day feature
  * (Technical) Improved and integrated annotation (browser technology
has moved on since our original attempt 2+ years ago)

The front-page has also seen a bit of a touch-up recently (less text,
nicer buttons, a picture of shakespeare himself!):
