Metagov Communi ty Member Cent Hosten will host the fireside discussion\, as well as 30 mi nutes of open discussion with attendees to follow.\n\n​This will be inte resting for members of the Metagov community because KeepRight points towa rds a way that communities and individuals can describe how they want digi tal artifacts to be stewarded over time\, and attach those descriptions to items (governance related or not) in ways that could enable an interopera ble ecosystem of archive providers to respect and execute on what might be thought of as preservation contracts. KeepRight also compliments copyrigh t concerns\, so those with a copyright background may be especially intere sted.\n\n​Links:\n\n​http://abitofgeorge.com/\n\n​https://keepright. info/\n LOCATION:https://researchseminars.org/talk/Metagov/293/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
