[OpenGLAM] Bootstrap a combined OpenGLAM network - revitalise this mailing list

Thu Apr 19 12:13:37 UTC 2018

Hi all,

as OpenGLAM newbie I also welcome this initiative, especially because we
are about to engage in a major cultural heritage research and exhibition
project (www.resonanzen.eu) and would like to to design the project archive
around openglam-ideas / principles from the very beginning. For starters,
suggestions related to data models etc (also off-list) more than welcome.

best,

Soenke Zehle
