I am planning on attending the Summit. I have not been able to help much
with a code but I have a fairly good idea of the landscape of Computer

http://gobby.0x539.de/
http://chalks.berlios.de/dokuwiki/doku.php <- Most promising as they use
a sophisticated/research backed algorithm.

http://www.inkscape.org/ (Search for inkboard)

My own sad attempt:
