'''Present'''
Antske, Guus, Milena, Niels (Skype), Serge, Susan

* The organization of the Workshop on biographical data in the first half of 2015 is briefly discussed. Susan stresses the importance of setting a common goal/outcome: a European project and a common research question: 'Why is it important that we link everything to everything? Guus mentions other possibly interesting common research questions like ''linked data'' and ''crowd sourcing''. '''Antske''' and '''Serge''' will try to organize and coordinate this workshop primarily together with Sebastiaan and Ronald from Hugens, but also with Eveline and Thierry from Austria and other German speaking colleagues who are rumored to organize a similar event around the same time.
* About the eScience Center informal presentation on 18 September: Serge mentions it might be a good idea to focus on presenting the prototype. Guus mentions he also wants to address some more general research themes and issues like crowd sourcing, connections to other eScience projects and recap what our meta questions are and how this fits with other European projects. Milena notes that it is also important to let the eScience Center know what we would recommend for them. '''Guus''', '''Antske''',''' Niels''' and '''Serge''' will be present
* A BiograhyNet delegation (most likely Serge, Antske, Niels) will present the project during a crash course on digital humanities on 21 or 23 October. Susan mentions it will be a good idea to also test the demo version there

* Next meeting will be on 21 August 14:00-15:30, after which a new schedule will be implemented (though possibly Thursday afternoons will still be fine)
