Abstract
There are many good motivations to open-source one’s code. It gives a project visibility and potential contributors who will help develop new ideas (and find bugs!) For research projects, it can be a way to test theories and implementations in real-world settings. Still, open source NLP is not as widespread as it could be, especially in terms of developing end-user applications. This workshop gathers open source practitioners and interested participants to discuss motivations, methods and strategies.
The event is free and open to everyone – no need to register.
