Subject: BBC Domesday - Emulation and Preservation, publicity event on 2nd
On the 2nd of December the CAMiLEON project is holding an event at the
University of Leeds to announce, demonstrate and publicize its digital
preservation work with BBC Domesday. The audience will include original
members of the Domesday Project, as well as a good showing from the digital
preservation, and BBC/Acorn/RiscOS communities. There will be four speakers
including Peter Armstrong - the then Chairman of the Domesday Project and
some special guests. A full demonstration of our BBC Domesday emulation will
be running alonside the original BBC kit.
This will be an opportunity to chat with designers of Domesday and see it in
action in its original and emulated forms. There is already a great deal of
press interest and the event is expected to feature heavily in the national news.
The event will take place at 4pm on the 2nd December at the University of Leeds.
A number of places are available for this invitation only event. If you are
interested in attending, please drop me an email@...@leeds.ac.uk
including the following details:

Please could you also include details of your interest in Domesday or links
to the BBC Domesday Project. We will be able to give some priority to those
with a real Domesday link or to current RiscOS press.

CAMiLEON is a joint project at the University of Leeds and the University of
Michigan funded by JISC and NSF.
Many thanks
