> Are you saying we'll have some completely new concept beyond documents?

Don't know about you, but just about every important technical document here resides in a versioned wiki. If we print it for, like you say, discussions, the doodles are usually merged with the document in the wiki when the discussion is over. The wiki page (or pages) is the document. It retains history, authorship and is the canonical reference for that information.

That said, this is more common in the IT-related areas. Lawyers, among others, tend to resist technical innovation. I just imagine how hard it was for them to adopt typewriters.
