[open-linguistics] Open Linguistics workshop/meetup at OKCon 2011?

Sat May 28 17:18:00 UTC 2011

I would be very interested in hearing about a set of minimal guidelines for
releasing open linguistics datasets. I am willing to do some lobbying with
authors of datasets I use to release them more openly, but I wouldn't know
what to tell them, e.g. w.r.t. licensing.

I also assume it would be soothing for them to hear that their efforts would
be credited somehow, e.g. as citations. So maybe it would be worth
considering something along the lines of an online journal by the OKF that
allows people to publish articles describing their oepn datasets,
methodology for creation, intended applications, etc.?

Just thinking out loud here.

Is there anybody you know that could speak of things of the sort?

Cheers
Pablo
