191326 - Eric cites following from Traction website...
191327 -
191328 -
191329 -          With Traction, you can flag paragraphs of the same entry with
191330 -          tags like suggestion, contact, competition and todo. With the
191331 -          interactive form, it's as easy as adding a color-coded
191332 -          Post-ItTM flag to a paper document. ref DRT 1 2900

191340 -     which is cited in the record for the meeting on 000324.

191367 - Eric cites Two questions...
191368 -
191369 -    1.  Can the same node be in multiple categories (that needs to be
191370 -        possible), ref DRT 1 2847
191371 -
191372 -    2.  Theirs is a server-side system, yes? So any change in
191373 -        categorization is seen by everyone, yes?
191374 -
191375 -        a.  Who gets to make those changes?
191376 -
191377 -        b.  In a distributed email-style system, are all such
191378 -            categorizations still seen by everyone? Or is there a
191379 -            separate "publish" step to make them visible? ref DRT 1
