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 asking people to contribute their ideas and observations. We want to shape the agenda based on real issues and concerns, and need your input to be sure that happens. Join the discussions.
