Hi Mathieu and all!

I have entered a submission in the indicated part of website -
more of an activist text so not realy ripe for formal review. I
think what is needed is critique and comments though.
And a way to do this properly. There are mainly these ways which come
to my mind:
1. Use the comments feature
Plone has a comment feature. At the end of each
page you can add a
comment. This allows replies to comments also.
However, this makes
it hard to refer to a particular part of the
reviewed text. Also
AFAICS comments are not subscribeable so new
comments are not sent
by email.
2. Add a `Talk` page
We could add a `Talk` page to each submission like
the `Talk` page
in Wikipedia. Again it is a bit difficult to refer
to particular
parts.
3. Make comments in the submission
This would mean that the original submission is
edited by the
reviewers. Could be done but clutters the original
submission. In
any case a reviewer must leave a signature or so.
4. Make comments in a copy of the submission
We could simply copy a submission to another page
and ask for
comments there. That would leave the original
intact but allows for
comments in the appropriate places. Again reviewers
need to leave a
signature so it is clear who made what comment.
I think option 4 is the best one.
The more I think about it the more I believe that responses,
dialogue between authors, joint statements etc are what we can
contribute to the peer production discussion, on top of peer
reviewed papers natch!
Yes - like Tony suggested.
I think it could be good practice to let everyone on this list
know whenever people post a substantive paper / comment on the
website? What do others think?
That is part of what I addressed by

Group subscription to a subtree is somewhat difficult - I'm just
asking the developer of the notification tool how he meant his
documentation...
However, it is easy to set up a fake account with the email
address of
this list and this way subscribe this whole list to change
notifications. I just did this so changes are at least sent here [#]_.
( Mathieu: Password for user `mlist` is the same as for the mailing
list.)
.. [#] Normally this is considered bad practice because subscriptions
like this should not be done by a mailing list. But
at the moment
it is probably better this way.
