We're hosting a pre-conference workshop at Museums and the Web 2010
that will bring together wikimedians and museum people from around the
world. Our goal, through some face-to-face conversation, is move
through some of the policy and procedural questions that have proven
stumbling blocks to date, and scope out ways we can truly collaborate.
In preparation for the workshop we're for ideas, observations and
inspiration. We want to shape the agenda based on real issues and
concerns, and need your input to be sure that happens. Join the
discussions at http://conference.archimuse.com/forums/wikimediamw2010
