Hi everyone,

A bunch of us are proposing an 'Open Science Interest Group' for the 
Society of American Archaeology (whose meetings are happening right 
now). Here's the proposal in detail: http://bit.ly/saaopensci

And here's the petition for which we need 25 member signatures to 
present to the SAA Executive Committee: 
http://bit.ly/saaopensci-petition. If you're a current SAA member, 
please add your name to the petition.

Here's a few things we're doing at the meeting:

* A session of papers on "Open Methods in Archaeology: How to Encourage 
Reproducible Research as the Default Practice"
* A presentation on open methods in the 'Digital Data Interest Group' 
business meeting
* A lightning talk in the 'Digital Archaeology Projects' meeting to 
introduce the Open Science Interest Group in the DDIG 
(http://digitalarchaeology.msu.edu/saa2015-lightning/portfolio-item/open-methods-group/)

thanks,

Ben
