*What*

Are you curious about the current Darwin Core public review period but not
sure how to engage? Meaning to think about it, but need time on the
calendar to make it happen? Not sure how to interpret all of the
documentation and discussion? Join us for an informal help desk session to
orient new participants and answer questions. We will begin with a
10-minute overview of the TDWG public review process (to be recorded),
followed by open discussion and Q&A (not recorded). Discover what changes
are being suggested, what new terms are being proposed, and how you can
share your thoughts!

Note that the current review is more complex than typical Darwin Core
change proposals, as it includes a new Conceptual Model and Data Package
guide. These proposed changes are intended to support richer, more complex
types of biodiversity data than are currently possible with a Darwin Core
Archive. Read more about the current review here
