The conference web site (http://www.tdwg.org/conference2009) and online registration is now open for TDWG 2009 in Montpellier.

TDWG 2009 will have a very different structure to recent meetings. There will be plenary sessions on the Monday, Wednesday and Friday. The three themes 'The e-Biosphere Roadmap' (Walter Berendsohn), 'Agricultural Biodiversity Informatics' (Elizabeth Arnaud) and 'Data Integration' (Roger Hyam)' will operate generally as parallel working group sessions on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday with introductions in the Monday plenary.

The latest version of the Programme Committee's detailed programme can be found on the conference site. The current committee thinking about the working sessions (Tuesday-Thursday) can be found at http://wiki.tdwg.org/twiki/bin/view/Conferences/Tdwg2009). Comments and ideas can be added here.

This year, we are aiming at significant advances in areas such as the TDWG ontology and LSID infrastructure. We also anticipate that Darwin Core, TAPIR and the LSID Applicability Statement will be TDWG standards before TDWG 2009. What's next?
