This Source Modelling CommunityBeta web-based workspace is intended to provide ways for you to expand your skills and keep abreast of developments in the water sector, specifically in modelling, data management and presentation. It also provides opportunities for you to augment the Source software, for example by creating plug-ins, and to influence the further development of Source and supporting documentation. This 'beta' workspace will be further developed to more fully satisfy those needs.
The Source Modelling CommunityBeta was created in response to surveys of Source modellers, and your ongoing inputs and feedback are vital to make it successful. By contributing to this space, you will be helping to organise, upgrade and distribute knowledge that the Source Modelling Community can use in modelling practice.
The workspace consists of two basic technologies, a forum called the 'Knowledge Pool' and wiki-type space, the Source Modelling Community Home, hosted on the Confluence platform that provides content and mechanisms to comment on and evolve the content. The forum is useful for initiating discussions, problem solving, and general conversational style interactions. The Source Modelling Community Home is for generating and organising larger volumes of information which may be useful to refer to at a later date or you think may be useful for other modellers (to get you on your way, we've created a Getting Started section). Community interactions can occur in either of these places, or somewhere else entirely, the important thing is that you as community members are interacting in a way that is useful and meaningful to you.
