[researchobject] RO-Crate Call #10 2020-02-27

(Apologies for double-posting!)

The next monthly RO-Crate community call is **next week**,
Thursday 27 Feb 2020 (Friday 28 for some).

Everyone is welcome!


## What is RO-Crate?

RO-Crate is a community effort to establish a lightweight approach to
packaging research data with their metadata. It is based on schema.org
annotations in JSON-LD, and aims to make best-practice in formal
metadata description accessible and practical for use in a wider variety
of situations, from an individual researcher working with a folder of
data, to large data-intensive computational research environments.


## Where did RO-Crate come from?

RO-Crate is the marriage of Research Objects with DataCrate. It aims to
build on their respective strengths, but also to draw on lessons learned
from those projects and similar research data packaging efforts. For
more details, see <https://w3id.org/ro/crate>


## Is there a specification?

Sure! See <https://w3id.org/ro/crate/1.0>

To help evolve this specification, collaborate on use cases and
implementations, you might be interested in joining this monthly
RO-Crate Community conference call; or joining the GitHub team
