Dear colleagues,
You can now sign up https://www.eventbrite.com/e/force2019-edinburgh-tickets-61091464214 to join us for the next installment of the popular, solutions-focused FORCE11 meeting – in Edinburgh October 16-17, with workshops on the 15th.
We’re meeting this year at the historic BT Murrayfield Rugby Stadium. So, in addition to all the thought-provoking talks and sessions, you’ll also have the chance to take in a little sport history.
We’ve announced two of our keynotes already – Arfon Smith and Rachel Bruce https://www.force11.org/meetings/force2019/speakers/keynote-presenters – and the Program Committee https://www.force11.org/meetings/force2019/committee/force2019-committees is hard at work on the rest of the program now.
If you’ve enjoyed past FORCE11 meetings, or haven’t made it to one yet but heard it’s a great meeting, register now https://www.eventbrite.com/e/force2019-edinburgh-tickets-61091464214. Early-bird rates are available until September 1.
More information is available on the meeting website https://www.force11.org/meetings/force2019. Questions and comments are always welcome, to force2019@force11.org
We’ll look forward to seeing you there!
Thanks! Violeta Ilik FORCE11 Fundraising Committee Chair Sponsorship opportunities are available https://www.force11.org/meetings/force2019/sponsorship-opportunities
The FORCE11 annual conference is a different kind of meeting, where stakeholders come together – or scrummage – for an open discussion, on an even playing field, to talk about changing the ways scholarly and scientific information is communicated, shared and used. Researchers, publishers, librarians, computer scientists, informaticians, funders, educators, citizens, and others attend the FORCE11 meeting with a view to supporting the realization of promising new ideas and identifying new potential collaborators.
Hi Violeta,
Thank you for your email.

May I suggest, like several of us already have last year, to add some context as to how this conference is relevant to people on the Wikidata mailing list?
Thanks at lot!
Hi there,
I'm just going to remind you of the thread from last year: https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikidata/2018-September/012416.html
No other list requests to have the subject matter chew for them and served. Intellectual curiosity will prompt some to explore the links I shared, and some will not. It is understood that not everyone subscribed to the wikidata list will be interested in this conference, but some people are interested and they do attend and present.
Peace, -vi
