Today is the deadline for submitting an expression of interest to host
and run the CLARIN-PLUS workshop on 'How to reach out to new users'.
I plan to submit a proposal this afternoon (around 4pm), for the
workshop to to be jointly organized by the CLARIN-UK consortium. The
following centres have already been in touch to say that they want to be
involved, so I'll list them in the proposal. We need to list the
expertise in user outreach which we all have. In this context, this
experience of working with peopl in disciplines other than linguistics
and computational linguistics. I've indicated in brackets below a first
draft of a summary of this expertise. This doesn't need to be
exhaustive, but we just need to show that we have broad and deep
experience in this area!
Please let me know if you have any comments, additions or corrections
(by 4 this afternoon). There is still time for other centres to get
involved as well - just tell me about the areas you have expertise in.
