    Hey all,
     
    Thanks for all the fantastic feedback. I've made some minor changes:
     
    * "Projections" are now "Objectives" (thanks to Randy Fisher).
    * "Tribe" is now "Stream".
    * Discussion pages are now enabled for objectives (thanks to Alex Rollin).
     
    Hope that makes the system easier to use.
     
    Alex:
     
    * I haven't yet packaged this up to be deployable on other MediaWiki
    instances, but would very much like to. At the moment, I've patched
    MediaWiki in a bunch of places and it's a bit messy. Would be very
    cool to clean it up and make a completely self-contained open source
    Confluence extension.
     
    Wayne:
     
    * One can create a new page and link to it from both an intention and
    a need… and thus connect them up. Not sure if that's what you were
    asking about though…
     
    * I can totally understand that MediaWiki isn't perfect for many
    things — and thus my work on Ampify. But I was trying to achieve a
    very quick result with this MediaWiki hack.
     
    * Nice idea about checking off needs/intentions. That would be very
    cool! Unfortunately MediaWiki doesn't support this natively — however,
    it would be possible to add such functionality by creating an
    Extension though…
     
    Chris:
     
    * Thank you for the idea to extend the profile info wizard!! It now
    prompts you to create/join an objective and to add people to your
    stream.
     
    * I'm hoping that the name change from Projection to Objective makes
    it clearer. But some documentation would be really nice. David
    (Happyseaurchin) has started creating a short video which I hope will
    serve this purpose.
     
    Matt:
     
    * Definitely agreed that it needs a user guide — and an event or
    something to help bring out it's potential.
     
    * Perhaps we could have a collective skype/irc chat session sometime next week?
     
    Charley:
     
    * Totally agreed that we don't need to duplicate the existing
    MediaWiki documentation. Thanks for all the help you've been providing
    around the space.
     
    Wael:
     
    * Nice idea about bringing in the geo-location aspect. I hadn't
    considered that for MediaWiki at all! How do you see it working in
    this context?
     
    Thanks everyone for the great engagement.
