Successful shared markup vocabularies, far from being just lists of tags, are the centers of complex ecosystems that support use and users while drawing support from both user communities and vendors.

The program for the Symposium on Markup Vocabulary Ecosystems is now available: https://www.balisage.net/VocabEco/symposiumProgram.html 
In this symposium, on the day before Balisage: The Markup Conference 2018, we will discuss features of markup vocabulary ecosystems, how to nurture them, and how strategies to support some vocabularies might be useful to the communities that surround other markup vocabularies. We will discuss the ways in which we create and support shared vocabularies and how several successful vocabularies were created and how they are managed and documented. 

Symposium Logistics: 
- When: 30 July 2018
