> 
> The Open Annotation Core Data Model
> <http://www.openannotation.org/spec/core/> specifies an interoperable
> framework for creating associations between related resources,
> annotations, using a methodology that conforms to the Architecture of
> the World Wide Web. Open Annotations can easily be shared between
> platforms, with sufficient richness of expression to satisfy complex
> requirements while remaining simple enough to also allow for the most
> common use cases, such as attaching a piece of text to a single web
> resource.
> 
> 
> These day-long public roll-outs, carried out in concert with the
> Annotation Ontology and the Open Annotation Collaboration, and made
> possible by generous funding from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation,
> will inform digital humanities and sciences computing developers,
> curators of digital collections and scholars using digital content
> about the W3C Open Annotation Community Group’s work.
> 
> Participants will learn about the data model's core features and
> advanced modules through tutorials, a showcase of existing
> implementations, Q&A sessions with community implementers and live
> demonstrations.
