Thanks Jonathan!
It'd be great to have GLAM representation at Museums & the Web. It is the more expensive of the two, between Museum Computer Network and MW, so I rarely attend, and will not be this year. If anyone is interested in submitting a proposal, let me know though and I'd be happy to help look it over or offer insight on the kinds of specific things this community looks for in a proposal.

Just in case any of our GLAMistas on the US east coast haven't picked up on this. It would be good to have some Wikimedians participate.

Museums and the Web is the largest international conference devoted to art, science, and natural and cultural heritage online. Since 1997 it has hosted more than 20 events for museum professionals in the USA, Asia and Europe. Every year our North American conference features the best and most ground-breaking digital work in museums around the world. Its proceedings, freely available online (http://www.museumsandtheweb.com), represent one of the largest archives on digital innovation in the cultural sector, and serve as an important resource for professionals, students and others working with museums:
In 2013 we hosted Museums and the Web 2013 in Portland with 580 attendees from 44 countries, a Deep Dive to learn about the ground-breaking “Gallery One” installation at the Cleveland Museum of Art, and the 2nd Annual Museums and the Web Asia conference was held in Hong Kong and Beijing, China. MWA2013 included presentations by leading technologists and museum innovators from the Asia Pacific region, North America, Europe, and the Middle East. By hosting two sequential events MWA2013 attracted more than 300 attendees from 24 countries.
2014 promises to be another busy year starting with MW Florence February 19-21, 2014 in Florence; Italy, MW2014: Museums and the Web 2014, April 2-5, in Baltimore Maryland, USA; a Deep Dive on Email Archiving in Art Museums as well as an event in the fall in Asia.
