#OpenWebSearch Community Updates
Are you a researcher, entrepreneur, inventor, politician, … – interested in Open Web Search, its chances and challenges? Then we offer you the opportunity to join the monthly community meetings where the latest developments are presented and discussed on a regular basis.
The 45-min community updates take place online on the BigBlueButton platform every first Monday of the month.
Invitations to the community updates are posted on our community platform on Mattermost. If you don’t want to join Mattermost but want to take part in a community update, please write an email to: community@openwebsearch.eu. You will receive a link and access key for the BigBlueButton virtual room.
Please also note our ground rules for the meetings, which we have summarised below.
Webinars in the framework of the Community Update
From December 2024 till May 2025, the community updates will host webinars from the different OpenWebSearch.eu work packages. Bring a little more time and after a quick update on the Open Web Search Initiative, learn about our work on crawling, indexing, data infrastructure and more. Community Updates featuring webinars also take place every first Monday of the month, starting at 15:00 CET and lasting until 16:15 CET.
