PDF - I'd like to see this enabled for uploading on the wiki. It would be nice to host overviews of copyright law, etc.  —Stephen Ewen (Talk) 15:11, 14 September 2007 (CDT)

Well, until we do, just mail PDFs to me. --Larry Sanger 10:09, 15 September 2007 (CDT)

We should look into other web-based formats other than PDF. I particulary enjoy PDF for it's functionality but if we can find another way to natively integrate documents into CZ then it would be to our advantage when it comes time to actually introduce them. --Robert W King 10:31, 15 September 2007 (CDT)
Yes, I'm partial to HTML and MediaWiki myself.  ;-) And it doesn't matter at all whether these essays live elsewhere or not, or are in another format. The point is simply to create a collection of essays. They don't have to be hosted by us. --Larry Sanger 09:35, 17 September 2007 (CDT)
See http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Images_and_other_uploaded_files#Supported_file_types for a discussion on how to enable other files types. This would be very easy to turn on for CZ... Eric M Gearhart

Collaborate?

Anyone (or several) game to co-author an essay pro-non-commercial?  —Stephen Ewen (Talk) 11:48, 17 September 2007 (CDT)
