2025 Barcamp Session Proposal: New Customized Clustering Feature since 3.9

Description

Since OpenRefine 3.9 we have a new feature that enables us to define our own clustering functions.

Since the release there is not a lot talk about this feature. Also no user questions in the forum. Actually the feature was broken from the first release and nobody noticed for quite some time.

As I personally really enjoy this feature I suggest to give short presentation on what to do with this feature and then discuss on what is missing.

Format

Guided workshop. Probably 30-45 minutes long.

Session goals

Learn about this new feature and identify use cases.
