[tdwg-humboldt] Steps to publicize the Humboldt Extension following ratification

[Baskauf, Steven James]

I mentioned at our meeting yesterday that the Executive Committee is interested in working to support task groups in getting out the word about their outputs. I’m going to share a paragraph that our chair (Ely Wallis) sent following the completion of the MaterialEntity terms ratification:

The Executive did discuss one aspect of the ratification, which is how best to communicate the changes made this year to Darwin Core. We are aware that there are many users of Darwin Core in the community who may never participate in a public review discussion, or even open a GitHub issue. However, the changes being proposed, discussed and implemented will still affect them. We are keen to ensure that we communicate widely. Our Outreach and Communications subcommittee will be very happy to help with blog posts, social media, organising a webinar etc. I know that there are some next steps to go with implementing the changes so please let us know when and how we can help.

As we move through the public review and are thinking about next steps, let’s consider how we can make use of this offer for help.

Steve
