I put together a concept map using FreeMind of A2k, as part of work on a
model to look at a 'development equation' of ICTs and Access to Knowledge
for Development (ICTA2K4D) -  we were interested looking at a spectrum of
connectivity to a2k to development.. have a look at
www.stratongina.net/ICTA2K4D ...is just really a brainstorming.

I am interested to know if it is possible to have a Wiki Mind, where you can
use FreeMind concept map type software openly and collaboratively on the
web.

would be very interested Aslam, if that presentation is made available, and
I think we should continue to expand the networks in terms
ofcommunications-based across the global South in general.  Maybe we can
collaborate.
