+abstract: >-
+  The aim of this workshop is to present a set of good
+  practices in research data management, explain version
+  control, and to introduce the core features of DataLad
+  software - a data management multitool that can assist in
+  handling the entire life cycle of digital objects. We will
+  tackle issues ranging from “what is a good file name” to
+  “how to publish a version-controlled dataset”.
+
+  The exercises will provide an opportunity to gain hands-on
+  experience with using DataLad to create a basic dataset,
+  track its changes over time, and publish its contents. You
+  will also learn how to use data created by others and
+  collaborate on datasets. The exercises will be based
+  around toy examples, but all operations will be relevant
+  for real-world data management.
