Thank you Asaf,
I replied there, but I'll repeat here:
I think your proposal is perfectly in line with the Saturday track:
discussing about Wikisource identity, writing a "manifesto" and providing
the foundations of a future movement-wide conversation about Wikisource is
the core of the conference.
I had a very rich conversation with Garfield in the site visit he made in
Italy,
and now I'm more than convinced that we are on the right direction for
making beautiful things happen.
The conference will be, I hope, an awesome event where Wikisource editors
will gather, discuss, write software, and see themselves as a whole
community.
The more we are aware of who we are, the easier is to tell others.
I think this is crucial for the future of Wikisource.
I really hope we'll be many in Wien :-)

It's now time to start organizing the conference:
go to the Chapters you contacted earlier, as we need to have as many
people possible with the Scholarship.
Soon enough we'll start working with the WMF for international
scholarships.

Hi,
It sounds good to me.
I add myself about the National Library of France partnership (an old
one but still interresting with useful lessons learned). Ping : JeanFred :
are you available to talk with me?
Talking about the BAnQ partenership would be great too (Ernest are you
available?).
For Wikidata, it's a big transversal subject. We need at least an
introduction presentation on Friday for everyone to know what we're talking
about and having (roughly) the same level of knowledge.
