This wasn't discussed as far as I am aware. I don't really have a good idea about what *isn't* possible. But as no one else had answered you, I wanted you to at least know that the idea was not explored in the discussions I participated in. Birgitte SB On Aug 3, 2012, at 3:57 AM, Dovi Jacobs

I am cataloguing the non-WM contacts I made at Wikimania. Reading up on them, basically making the time I didn't have during the conference to understand who they are. The BHL had three librarians at the conference, I remember that they were very interested in a solution for getting OCR correct

I am afraid I ended up being rather sleep deprived and scattered today. I never found out any more on these. There was a very extensive and promising discussion of meta-data today. I doubt I can do it justice without recovering some sleep. BirgitteSB On Jul 15, 2012, at 10:33 AM, birgitte.

There is a very robust patrolling extension that is a very very significant improvement over the current system. It is crazy robust. Most of it is currently live on en.WP. Although they are finishing up on one piece. It is work-flow oriented. The demo at WM was very impressive. http://www.m
