Apologies for Cross Posting ------------------------------------ We are very excited to announce that Jacqui Taylor Co-Founder and CEO of FlyingBinary (http://www.flyingbinary.com/) has agreed to be our Opening Keynote. An appointment to the Cabinet Office as an Open Data domain expert recognises Jacqui as a web scientist of influence in the era of Big Data. You can follow Jacqui at @jacquitaylorfb.
When you register (http://rfringe13.eventbrite.com/) you will be able to indicate how you would like to participate (http://rfringe13.blogs.edina.ac.uk/contribute/). The Repository Fringe conference is designed around the participants sharing their experiences and work in whichever format suits you: Pecha Kuchas, lightening talks, Round Table discussions, tutorials and even songs. The Edinburgh Fringe Programme (https://www.edfringe.com/) is now available, so you can start planning your evening's entertainment, please use our Crowdvine (http://rfringe13.crowdvine.com/) to share details of acts you would recommend to others.
