[edit] Run your own VoCamp!
The following list is in a vague sequence according to likely time of event (soonest first).
[edit] Vienna
in conjunction with ESTC
[edit] Edinburgh
Harry Halpin and Keith Alexander have discussed the possibility of organising a VoCamp in Edinburgh. At this point, July might be the best month. Also, there is a huge festival in Edinburgh all of August. We could do Voccamp at the Informatics Forum at the University of Edinburgh.
[edit] Barcelona
There is a possibility of a VoCamp in Barcelona or Madrid in Spring 2009, close (in time) to WWW2009. If you're interested in taking part make your enthusiasm known to Peter Mika ;) (see VoCampIbiza2009!)
[edit] London
tommorris: if you have space in London and would be willing to let me run such an event in London, ping me an e-mail - tom@tommorris.org (via #swig)
[edit] Boston
EricP has expressed a willingness to organise a VoCamp at MIT.
[edit] Austin
Juan Sequeda has expressed an interest in running a VoCamp in Austin, TX. This is going to take place on the weekend of March 28-29. VoCampAustin2009
[edit] Washington DC
Ed Summers is interested in trying to help make a VoCamp happen in DC: possibly at the Library of Congress, or elsewhere in the area. There are lots of people doing stuff with OWL, RDFS, RDF, etc in the area... so getting people together around vocabulary development seems like a generally useful thing to try to do. Immediately before of after ISWC2009 (October 2009) has been floated as a potential window for this event.
We are organizing the WOP workshop at ISWC 2009. It is strongly related to Vocamp activities and we are thinking at organizing a Vocamp there supported by the workshop. I'll let you know more precise info soon. (Valentina)
