Enzo, so I read the draft. Generally it seems like it is on a good track; widgets are certainly one worthwhile avenue to explore and do present a sort of middle ground between the CMS and the fully distributed PLE. I think if you do a little more digging, you will find some more material (and projects) that are exploring this that you may want to cite as precedents - I know the JISC folks in the UK, ofr instance, have funded some work along these lines. Not sure where you are hoping to publish this, but depending on how formal/how technical an audience it is intended for, you may want to start the piece with a bit of context setting instead of jumping straight into Konfabulator and other widget technologies; many people are not even at the point in the conversation where the necessarily understand why CMS are flawed and why we’d want to look for anything else.
Hope that helps, cheers, Scott Leslie
