**Project title** Poser session at Wikimania 2019
- Context
-- The poster session has been incorporated to the main program of the conference since 2017. Since then, it has tracked a lot of interest from participants, as an opportunity to learn about multiple projects and interact with project leaders directly in the span of two hours, the same time that it would take to present 4 projects only. The poster session usually gets the largest room in the conference, and there is very little or nothing competing in the same time slot.
