Digital Preservation Q&A Session

  • Aims to create a searchable, community-driven forum for digpres info/knowledge exchange
  • Better than Q&As scattered among email threads, Google groups, Twitter, etc.
  • Started on StackExchange, but never got enough traffic to be on their “production” site.
  • Open Planets Foundation (European digital preservation community) agreed to host it.
  • "Soft launched" via NDSA-All and tweets, this session is the “coming out” debutante party.
  • Goal of session:
    • Port Q&A from other locations (like Andy Jackson’s harvesting from Stack Exchange)
    • Live Q&A entered in the site
  • Maybe make a category for old SE posts
  • Definitely note provenance for Q&As taken from elsewhere
  • Chelcie – can enter the questions on the “big screen”.
  • Matt – will enter answers on his own PC.
  • Spencer – will also enter answers on his PC.
  • All Innovation WG members are encouraged to bring their own laptops and enter answers and more questions!
