[OKCon-Programme] Your OKCon 2011 Submission

Thu Jun 2 14:38:49 BST 2011

Dear Sebastian,

Thanks for your emails. Indeed, the topic might lend itself better to a presentation.

Organization is Oakdene Hollins http://www.oakdenehollins.co.uk/ . The authors of the paper are Adrian Chapman, Peter Willis and Nick Morley who wrote the paper before I joined Oakdene Hollins. I am now involved in the research track, and I am interested in getting the open data and open knowledge community on board in thinking about opening up archives, and thinking about innovating using forgotten R&D that has renewed relevance. I thought I could do this at OKCon with a semi-structured workshop in which we workshop the possibilities for opening up archives for re-invention, but indeed, a presentation might be better suited as the topic does not have a huge base of followers yet.

Is the application as it is right now sufficient for a presentation proposal? If not, let me know what you would like to have more.

Best regards,

Niels

Hi Sebastian,

Excellent. I think it's great you pushed back the deadline to allow more people to put forth proposals.

I am now in two proposals, one with P2PU and one I put forth myself on the potential for re-invention for sustainability using open data.

As I was a bit unclear about the submission process on the wordpress blog, I might have undersold the workshop on re-invention by not outlining the workshop methodology and providing you with bio's of the people involved in the project.

I understand there is little room for you to ask all people who submit a proposal for clarification on certain aspects, but I would like to send you this brief message: please contact me if there are any unclarities in my application. I wasn't able to edit it after I sent it in I believe, so any chances I get to clarify things to you or other committee members would be great.

Hope the reviewing goes well,

Best regards,

Niels
