Hello Quim, We have in Belgium (as Wikimedia Belgium) a partner organisation who is together with us working with cultural institutions to get open datasets to be used in Wikidata.
So yes, we are interested. Greetings, Romaine 2015-07-01 17:31 GMT+02:00 Quim Gil <[email protected]>: > Hi, it's first of July and I would like to introduce you a quarterly goal > that the Engineering Community team has committed to: > > Establish a framework to engage with data engineers and open data > organizations > https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T101950 > > We are missing a community framework allowing Wikidata content and tech > contributors, data engineers, and open data organizations to collaborate > effectively. Imagine GLAM applied to data. > > If all goes well, by the end of September we would like to have basic > documentation and community processes for open data engineers and > organizations willing to contribute to Wikidata, and ongoing projects > with one open data org. > > If you are interested, get involved!
