Following up on last year’s OpenRefine 2024 Barcamp: Presentation of OpenRefine status, I would like to propose a 2025 BarCamp session dedicated to:
- Presenting OpenRefine’s current budget and operating model (how we sustain the project today, with a small paid core team and a large volunteer community).
- Reviewing key milestones from the past year, including hiring, release, and funding strategies
- Sharing the details of our 2025 fundraising campaign, including the goals, strategy, and ways the community can contribute or help amplify.
This will be an opportunity for the community to ask questions, give feedback, and discuss together how we can continue building a sustainable future for OpenRefine.
Proposed format: short presentation (10–15 min) followed by open Q&A and discussion.
