We have the technology side and the project management side figured out pretty well -- we are good at it. The sociology of systems have been ignored. There is never budget/time/resources/money for that in the project plan.

We have actually used InFlow/SNA to figure out the social/work ecosystem that new I/T will reside in... but this does not happen often enough.

There are many who hold the belief that "Knowledge is power" and hold onto whatever shreds of it that they have. I'm not sure that they can be convinced that it is better to share.

It has been my experience in every sort of forum that there are people who like to share and teach and those who do not. I don't believe software or technologies will change the fundamentals.

Maybe a pay-per click system would provide some enticement for those who are holding out?
