Note
A note is typically a short message that you create directly in BSCW. Notes are a convenient tool to:
• inform the workspace members on a subject,
• start and organize a discussion about a problem,
• ask all members about their view on a topic.
Within a discussion,
you may create new notes on their own or as a 
to other notes, thereby contributing to discussion threads. Outside discussions,
a note can exist as an entry in your clipboard or trash when you have cut,
copied or deleted the note.
