Questions for later
- Do we still think the topics are right?
- If so, are they in the right order?
- Member States obliged to implement PSI Directive by June 2015 - i.e. during Share-PSI so what is most relevant?
- Do we agree on those venues and dates? They are expected, they are the default, they are not the requirement.
- Open Knowledge Foundation keen to host a workshop; LAPSI keen to do a joint event etc.
- Any change would be made by consensus (general agreement with no strong objections).
Case Studies - what are they?
A case study might be:
- News of a project you've run (successfully or otherwise)
- A problem you have solved
- A problem you have not been able to solve
Case Studies - what do I have to do?
Write up the case study
Present it at a workshop
Document and slides will be public, results will feed into the workshop report.
You can present as many of these as you like, you are certainly not limited to one at one workshop.
Organising a Workshop
- Set the date & topic
- Agree which partners will present case studies => you're on the organising committee
- Organising committee always includes W3C and host
- Agree the Call for (workshops are open to others)
- Recruit Programme Committee (to review submitted papers) - Org Comm plus domain experts
- Publish CfP
- Plan logistics, including session chairs, scribes etc.
- Review papers, devise agenda, inform paper authors
- Hold workshop
After the Workshop
- Hold project meeting the next morning to discuss next event(s);
- W3C writes report, Org Comm reviews

Some Rules

- Meals do not have to be provided FoC to delegates (but tea & coffee should be at least).
