In the longer term, I am hoping that we can develop
some ongoing
collaboration with groups like OSM.
I'd love to participate. I'm a consumer of OSM so far but I'd love to
become more involved.
I have heard a number of people interested in having
WikiConferece
USA here in 2016 or 2017. If you'd like to take the lead on
exploring how that would work, please do. It will be awhile before
we make commitments but exploratory work now would be most
welcome. I have some questions of my own about conferences in
general that I'll probably discuss with WMF also.
If we wanted to host WCUSA at UW, I'd be happy to serve a faculty
sponsor. I'm still quite new at UW so I'm not sure what is involved
but this closely related to my research so I would be happy to help
figure it out.
Later,
Mako
