[open-humanities] OKFest Session "Open Data and the Panton Principles for the Humanities"

Tue Jul 22 09:55:36 UTC 2014

Dear all,

James Harriman-Smith asked me to post the results of the OKFest Session 
on "Open Data and the Panton Principles for the Humanities" to this list

The session was well attended, and with Peter Murray-Rust we had one of 
the original authors in the audience. I first gave a short introduction 
to Open Data and the Panton Principles which you can find here:

Afterwards, we had an animated discussion on the issues of open data in 
the humanities. Then, I asked the participants to go into groups of 3 or 
4 to come up with solutions to these issues. The discussion and the 
solutions were captured by two participants in the Etherpad:

All in all, the session went very well. I hope that the outcomes are 
useful for your adaptation of the Panton Principles to the humanities. 
If you have any questions, please let me know!

Best,
Peter
