Hi all
GBIF has noted an error with the timing on the link to the second session. If you have registered already, you should receive an email directly from GBIF with amended timing information to correct the error. If you have not registered as yet, please hold off for a day or two until they can resolve the error. The link for Session 1 is fine.
Thanks
Andy

Subject: [Nhcoll-l] Consultation on Converging Digital and Extended Specimens: Towards a global specification for data integration
Dear all,
Over the past year several exciting conversations about the possibilities of digital representations of the billions of specimens currently held in the world’s natural history collections.

Beginning in February, the consultation<https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2Fesdsconsult&data=04%7C01%7Cabentley%40ku.edu%7C1e81c01c0d4b4ae5a27a08d8be26e850%7C3c176536afe643f5b96636feabbe3c1a%7C0%7C0%7C637468421604874068%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=9AnS6QcD4tC2lYk2u6fqelBuZb02ikib5igj239PaJw%3D&reserved=0> will seek to engage the wider community on a handful of topics that have technical, financial, social, governance and professional implications that require broader discussion and consensus. The consultation aims to expand participation in the process, build support for further collaboration, identify key use cases, and develop an initial roadmap for community adoption and implementation.
GBIF, DiSCCo, iDigBio, ALA, and the Biodiversity Collections Network (BCoN), among others, invite you to register for one of the two virtual opening sessions that will be held on February 16 by following the links below and then to become involved in the Discourse consultation discussion process.

This page will hold guidance on the consultation process with links to the discussion threads. Please see links on the landing page to more background documents. If you are a new user of the GBIF community forum you will need to register.
The organizers are excited by the large attendance at recent related events and expect a thoughtful and robust consultation.
Thanks
