Few notes from today (Matt has a more formal and more comprehensive write-up here):

OA books in Wikisource
Aubrey and Daniel spoke with Open Books Publisher, from Cambridge. They have CC-BY (and other license) licensed books and these Books could be inserted in Wikisource. I already asked some friends of mine to look into them, and I think that Humanities OA monographies are perfect candidates for Wikisource.

We actually need a bit of work for uploading (as automagically as we can) HTML and EPUBs in Wikisource: it's a matter of
 * converting HTML tags (references, links, etc.) in wikicode.
 * creating a Index in Wikisource, and uploading chapters as subpages.
 * OPTIONAL create a menu for selecting and populating the Header template
 * OPTIONAL automatic uploading of images in Commons

Towards a Common Map of Academia
This is the title of a poster from a polish researcher, who is creating with his colleagues a "open bibliography" of scholarly articles. He knows quite well MediaWiki, but didn't know Wikidata and he is extremely interested. Aubrey spoke with him and they exchanged mails.

Signaling OA-ness
There is a tool that tries to determine the license of an article on the basis of its DOI or PMID:
 * Open Article Gauge
 * Code
 * API
