====== Notes ======

Notes are a simple way for exchanging information between the users of an OpenGoo installation. Notes can be used as a replacement for a forum, a blog, a blackboard, or a mailing list. It supports comments, so you can discuss things; and by [[Subscriptions|subscribing]] to a note you get notifications by mail if there is a new comment. So notes are a simple, but powerful element of OpenGoo.

A note consists basically of a title and a text in plain text format (no formatting options, no HTML code).

PLEASE NOTE: The ''Additional text'' link below the regular text is usually not visible. This is a legacy feature and has no specific function at the moment. You will see this link only if you are using an OpenGoo installation that has been upgraded from a pre-1.0 release and if somebody entered some additional text already.((http://forums.opengoo.org/index.php?topic=306.msg1202#msg1202))
