> research fellows will present their first results in interactive sessions.
> We anticipate a lively get-together bristling with new ideas, and we hope
> that many of those working in the field of scholarly editing and digital
> humanities will gather here. In order to broaden the scope and diversity of
> the meeting, the convention organisers are issuing this call.
