Vikings Set Out to Conquer Semantic Web
Vikings set out to conquer Semantic Web: "German scientists are working on a project they call Wikinger (German for 'Viking') based on the concept of Wikipedia to provide virtual knowledge networking in addition to the classic exchange of knowledge at Congresses. The goal of the project is to create a domain-neutral platform for scientists to allow them to perform research in knowledge bases regardless of where they are and to generate new knowledge via the Internet in collaboration. The researchers are paying special attention to support for colleagues in networking new contributions with current knowledge. To this end, techniques from the Semantic Web are being used."

Thats quite interesting.
I am guessing it builds up ontologies that are dependent on the wiki pages?
I'll have to look out for that in the future, sounds very similar to something that I'll be working on from this summer (June 2006 til March 2007).
