Scope and purpose

December 2nd is a more traditional, sit-down-around-a-conference-table kind of workshop at the offices of the [Alliance of Museums]. The purpose of the December 2nd meeting is to sift through and digest inputs from the December 1st unconference/Ignite and facilitate a sustained discussion and debate about the scope and validity of the Openlab Concept.

This workshop is full and registration is closed - - but...

...we're going to run it as openly and transparently as possible.

We will be live-tweeting and (probably) wiki-casting this meeting

  • We'll use the [House Rule] - - everything said can (and probably will) be repeated publicly, but comments can only be attributed to speakers with their permission
  • Conversations will be tweeted and written on the wiki in real-time
  • Please join us and participate virtually through Twitter at @OpenlabW and #openlabworkshop
