Tom Coates has posted an exegesis and copy of the collaborative notetaking template he came up with during ETCon.

As one of the participants in the notetaking, the addition of this structure is a lightweight improvement to an already lightweight and self-organizing process, and indeed did assist in the later notetakings. Looking back over my notes now, I see where having had it earlier would have been better (particularly in the "who are the participants in the dialogue-as-notes, and who are the recipients" disconnect.

Again, and this is an essay in the cooking, it's so often an accretion of these small improvements that can make things better; just having the email addresses formatted for quick cut-n-paste would have made some of the inter-session shuffle less hectic for those of us serving the document.... More time for coffee!
