Themes will be determined based on a review of the presentations, but examples may include Technology, Sustainability, Use of The Cloud, and so on.Breakouts by theme may be also organized at the end of session. WDS will facilitate these discussions, but will mostly be in listening mode, so as to hear from the membership and identify ways for WDS to be of support.A Plenary Session in which four topics will be discussed with the community. WDS will present its activities related to technology and the new Data Together initiative (joint with CODATA, RDA, and GO FAIR).
