Dear colleagues!
This is a short update on the current state of work and upcoming activities:
1. Session proposal for the RDA Plenary in Botswana
2. Workshop at the TPDL18 in Porto in September
3. Paper at the iPres18 in Boston
4. Second Consultation
Ad.1 We are going to submit a session proposal for the plenary in Botswana.
Again we would like to have some presentations and a follow-up discussion.
We would like to present a draft of the model and some use cases showing how
the model can be used. We’re also keen to include talks from you or to
invite other WGs to synchronise our developments. Please let us know about
your ideas!
Ad.2. We will be running a half-day workshop co-located with the TPDL 2018
conference and Dublin Core Metadata Initiative (DCMI) 2018 conference. It
will take place on 12th of September. You can find the official website of
our workshop here: http://rda-ws-tpdl2018.idsswh.sysresearch.org/# The
workshop will be a great chance to meet in person!
