We would like to invite you to a hackathon on machine-actionable Data Management Plans (maDMPs).

The hackathon is open for everyone. As well as software developers we are looking for anyone with an interest in data - no technical knowledge is necessary - you might help with ideas generation, user testing, documentation etc.
