A hectic Summer ended when by the end of September 2009 the application for OpenArch was sent to Brussels. Following the success of liveARCH, EXARC decided to hand in a new application (OpenArch), which will be with the same kind of archaeological open-air museums, but with some other emphasis. It took about 400 hours by the coordinating team and probably just as much by the 10 museums to get it ready, but it was worth it. We hope the 10 museums will get the chance to cooperate for a period of five years, starting October 2010. The project is under leadership of the Ciutadella Ibèrica de Calafell in Catalonia. We now need to wait until March 2010 to see what happens...
