Welcome!

Thank you for joining us!!

hypertext tool-builders and tinkerers
fediverse/decentralized tool-builders
synthesis-writers
librarians
cognitive scientists
HCI / CSCW / information science researchers
and more!

See Participants, which includes link to profiles, and browse around the #tables channels to see more details about who's here.

Reminder of our high-level goal: build energy/momentum/resources towards projects that can advance synthesis infrastructures!

Fortuitously this is happening at the same time as Aaron Swartz day (more notes from Jonny Saunders).

Quick overview of what we'll do: Workshop Agenda (scroll down to Phase II; this should be home base today)
