>Dear all,
>
>We would like to invite you to an informal meeting at the C4CC -
>http://creative-collaboration.net/ -  on *August 9 at 12pm *to populate the
>Open Econometrics database and try out the database and search tool.
>
>At the end of May we gathered a small group in
>London<http://openeconomics.net/2013/05/31/metametrik-first-sprint/>to
>think about a format for the saving of regression results which would
>enable meta analysis of the economics literature.
>
>Our idea has evolved since then and we have decided to build a prototype
>which would enable the saving the the query of regression results:
>essentially faceted search for dependent and independent variables, models,
>journals, authors, JEL classification codes, key words, etc. See these
>mock-ups to get an idea of how this tool can be used:
>http://imgur.com/a/gCMtT. Martin Keegan has been working on the prototype
>and would be with us on Friday.
>
>Join us for this informal gathering, (optionally) bringing a number of
>papers which you would like to populate the database with - they can be the
>empirical papers of your field, of your favourite econometrician or journal.
>
>We need your help to get some results in the database and start building
>vocabularies for the variables and models used in economics. Do you know if
>any such vocabularies have been done until now?
>
>If you are not able to attend in person, let me know so that we could
>connect remotely. We expect to be around between 12pm and 6pm, drop by
>anytime.
>
>If you have any questions or suggestions or any other input, please let us
>know.
