The call took place yesterday, and it was attended by @Jheald, @Pigsonthewing, @brion and me representing the Wikimedia side.
Jheald gave a great overview of the current status and tooling around IIIF on our projects and Brion provided an update on current work. I talked briefly about the planning for #structured-data-commons, a request for use cases and argumentation why strong IIIF integration on Wikimedia projects would be valuable for the IIIF community, and a plea to streamline communications better.
The full recording of the talk is available here: https://stanford.zoom.us/recording/play/nLCZcXBE1FeISFo4T6HftDHcPipS7MTE7VIpEJ5n44tLgbuIX6ZvHYNU4Cii6hAE?startTime=1534349352000
Some outcomes and bits of interesting/relevant info:
- There is interest to start a IIIF and Wikimedia interest group. See https://iiif.io/community/groups/ - if you are interested in joining the to-be-created Wikimedia-specific group, get in touch with IIIF's technical coordinator Glen Robson (please ping me for his email address, I'm uncomfortable sharing it in public here)
- If you want to stay up to date on IIIF things, there is also a IIIF slack with dedicated Wikimedia channel (you can request to be added here), a IIIF discussion list, and a lower traffic IIIF announcements list.
