Mitch Kapor, spoke a the Open Source Business Conference about Wikipedia and its strength as an open-source, publicly edited encyclopedia.
The coverage included this interesting tidbit:
After his keynote, attendees from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints asked Mitch about creating a Wikipedia-like service using its the massive geneology databases.
Could the Church be considering a family history wiki that anyone could contribute to?

Mitch Kapor was the founder of Lotus Corp. He is well-respected in the computer community. The Church could do no better than enlist his services for an Open Database of Information.
I, for one, would actively participate in such a project. Knowledge is power and the more we can share with others, the closer we bid Christ’s return.
Happy Dae.
