Reminder: this meeting is today! We have confirmed Douglas McCarthy and Creative Commons representatives will be there. If you have time to help, please feel free to contribute to a background document we are trying to assemble beforehand to get more from the meeting. https://etherpad.wikimedia.org/p/WREN_notes_2021-12-08 The wider announcement I've posted to Facebook and to WMF GLAM staffers is below. -Andrew ---- Hi all, we are having a special open meeting of the WREN (Wikimedians in Residence Exchange Network) today (Wednesday, December 8, 2021, 1700 UTC, 12 noon Eastern US) to discuss "Open GLAM as it relates to the NFT and crypto space" which was prompted by the recent NFT auction of "Wikipedia's First Edit" by Jimmy Wales. We felt it was an ideal time to discuss the greater issue, and will have a number of special folks join beyond the regular Wikimedians-in-residence crew including Douglas McCarthy, Creative Commons representatives, and those from the greater open GLAM community. Those interested in the issue are welcome to join and do not need to be a Wikimedian-in-residence. However, issues related to GLAM Wiki and Wikimedians in Residence will be given priority. Douglas McCarthy has been on the front lines of debating the use of NFT in the GLAM space, and this piece is a good backgrounder: https://apollo-magazine.com/should-museums-be-dabbling-in-nfts/ Meeting details here: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedians_in_Residence_Exchange_Network _______________________________________________ Wren mailing list -- wren(a)lists.wikimedia.org To unsubscribe send an email to wren-leave(a)lists.wikimedia.org
