The 1st convention for communities who create open books and knowledge resources: The SprintCon on October 21, 2019 in Hannover
« The SprintCon is the pre-conference of the Twenty-First International Conference on Grey Literature (GL21).

We value individuals and interactions, as we are aware of our roots in agile practices like Scrum. Sometimes, we need to finish a software documentation or a high school textbook chapter in time. Sometimes we need to combine the collective wisdom of a group of experts in one resource. We believe that many can draw from these experiences, and work together in cultivating and furthering the toolset of agile practices in book writing and other varieties of open knowledge creation.

If you want to learn actively, share experiences, and participate in growing our knowledge production skills together, then this convention is for you! (…) »
