2010

The first official meeting of the UK & Ireland DSpace user group was held on Wednesday 17th May 2010 in London. The event was kindly hosted by BioMed Central. The meeting took place between 10am and 4pm, but did not get into full swing until 11am to allow people who lived some distance away to arrive.

The role of committed and informal developers (who can make less time available) was discussed. The WG could manage and co-ordinate these efforts.
