*# Vocarnival*

The Vocabulary Carnival (Vocarnival) at SEMANTiCS 2018 is a unique 
opportunity for vocabulary publishers to showcase and share their work, 
meet the growing community of vocabulary publishers and users, and build 
useful semantic, technical and social links. The Vocarnival forms part 
of the SEMANTiCS programme with the Carnival Minute Madness and the 
marketplace.

*Which are the expected vocabulary types? *

All types! A very wide vocabulary definition applies to this 
competition, including ontologies, classifications, thesauri, concept 
and metadata schemes, independently of their format, be it RDF or not.

*When is the submission deadline?*

The submission deadline is set for September 3, 2018, 23:30 CET time.

Get familiar with the technical requirements and the presentation format 
for your vocabulary submission. Afterwards, follow the steps below and 
get honored by a special prize if you have one of the best three 
posters. The winners will be announced during the respective Vocarnival 
Session at SEMANTiCS 2018. Please find all information here:
