[open-humanities] OKFestival Deadline Extended to 30th March

Fri Mar 14 21:26:20 UTC 2014

Dear all,

I write again regarding the OKFestival in Berlin this year (
http://2014.okfestival.org/). The deadline for session proposals has been
extended to 30th March. More details below.

- We will be discussing this on the Skype call at 6pm on Thursday 20th: do
join in!
- Potential ideas: how to get more humanities researchers involved with
open data, defining what 'open data' is in the humanities and how it might
differ from the sciences...

If anyone has any ideas, do reply to this message.

------------------OKF annoncement:

The OKFestival <http://2014.okfestival.org/>Team has big news for you:
the deadline
to submit your OKFestival 2014 session proposals is now extended to March
30!

As you already know, this year's OKFestival Call for
Proposals<http://2014.okfestival.org/programme/propose-a-session/> was
due to end on Sunday and our spreadsheets have been filling up with dozens
of amazing session ideas. We've had lots of questions from you about your
proposals, answered heaps of Twitter
<https://twitter.com/OKFestival>messages asking for hints about the
best
way to design a workshop<http://2014.okfestival.org/programme/session-tips/>,
and hosted live
hangouts<http://2014.okfestival.org/tips-tricks-second-helpout-going-live-now/>with
you to talk about how you can collaborate with each other.

So, excited by your enthusiasm and fuelled by your contagious energy, we
have decided to extend the deadline for this year's proposals. We want to
hear from you! And we've even created a special mailing
list<https://lists.okfn.org/mailman/listinfo/okfestival-discuss>so
that you can get in touch easily with one another to collaborate on
proposals.

New deadline: March 30. And this time we're serious!
Keep sending <http://2014.okfestival.org/programme/propose-a-session/> your
brilliant, groundbreaking, collaborative proposals. We're looking forward
to reviewing them all!

Best,

OKFestival 2014 Team
