2019-11-18 Thread Scott Cain
Hello,

As announced last month, there will be a GMOD codefest held before the
Plant and Animal Genome meeting in San Diego, January 9-10, 2020.  The
meeting will be held at the Handlery hotel (down the street from the Town
and Country Hotel). Logistical and other information can be found at the
GMOD wiki as the details become more solid:

  http://gmod.org/wiki/Codefest_2020

Several potential projects are described in this document:


https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_CnUW_W4tNyl7lSlihCwZDKT45VQQxcI3I-VgjnC2Dc/edit

We know for sure that there will be developers from the Tripal, Apollo,
JBrowse, and Chado projects.  Of course, other projects like Galaxy,
InterMine, and MAKER are welcome too!

See you in San Diego!

Scott

I am pleased to announce there will be a GMOD codefest occurring before the
Plant and Animal Genomes meeting in San Diego. The codefest will be at the
Town and Country hotel on January 9 and 10. If you would like to suggest a
problem or project to address, add it to this Google Doc
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_CnUW_W4tNyl7lSlihCwZDKT45VQQxcI3I-VgjnC2Dc/edit?usp=sharing>.
The codefest is open to anyone who'd like to work on any GMOD project (or,
better yet, any combination of GMOD projects), including but not limited to
Tripal <http://gmod.org/wiki/Tripal>, Chado <http://gmod.org/wiki/Chado>,
JBrowse <http://gmod.org/wiki/JBrowse> (1 and 2), Galaxy
<http://gmod.org/wiki/Galaxy> and InterMine <http://gmod.org/wiki/InterMine>.
We already know that there will be Tripal, Chado and JBrowse developers
present. Registration information will be coming soon.

You can follow the changes to this page:

[galaxy-dev] Call for presentations at GMOD workshop at PAG

2017-10-13 Thread Scott Cain
Hi all,

This January in San Diego is the annual Plant and Animal Genomes (PAG)
meeting (http://www.intlpag.org).  As in previous PAGs, there will be
several opportunities to present content related to GMOD projects.  If you
are interested in attending PAG and giving a talk at the GMOD workshop on
Wednesday, January 17, please let me know.  Your talk can either be about
new developments/functionality in existing GMOD software, about how your
organization is using the suite of GMOD software to good effect, or about
technologies that you think the GMOD community would be interested in
hearing about.  Please email me directly with a title, an abstract or a
vague idea of what you'd like to talk about.

Also, if you'd really like to come but are having a hard time coming up
with travel funds, please let me know, I might be able to help you with
that too (up to a limit of one person anyway).

Cheers,
Scott

[galaxy-dev] GMOD hackathon before PAG San Diego in January

2017-10-12 Thread Scott Cain
Hi all,

This January before PAG on the Wednesday and Thursday before PAG (January
10-11) in San Diego we are planning a GMOD hackathon.  We expect that
participants will be interested in solving problems/creating solutions
related to Tripal, JBrowse, Apollo, and Galaxy but if you're interested in
another GMOD project, by all means, let us know!  We expect this hackathon
to overlap with the Tripal hackathon that is on January 11 (I'm pretty
sure; right Stephen?)

If you are interested in attending this hackathon, please let me know so I
can be sure we have an appropriately sized space.  And if you're coming for
the pre-PAG hackathon, consider staying for PAG, since there is always a
lot of GMOD-related content at the meeting!

Thanks,
Scott

Time is short!

If you want to attend PAG <http://www.intlpag.org/> and would like to
present on a topic that would be of interest to the GMOD community, please
send an abstract or at least a descriptive title to h...@gmod.org. Types of

for successful sites, proposals for new GMOD projects and descriptions of
plugins for existing GMOD software projects like Tripal
<http://gmod.org/wiki/Tripal>, JBrowse <http://gmod.org/wiki/JBrowse> and
Galaxy <http://gmod.org/wiki/Galaxy>.

Please consider giving a talk and sharing your experience and ideas!

[galaxy-dev] Call for GMOD talks at PAG

2016-10-28 Thread Scott Cain
Hi,

I am pleased to announce a call for talks to be given at the Plant and
Animal Genomes conference this January in the GMOD workshop on Wednesday,
January 18th.  Any talks that involve the development or use of GMOD
software are welcome.  In particular this year, I'd really like to
highlight plugins for the various GMOD software packages that support them,
like JBrowse, Galaxy and Tripal (of course, Galaxy and Tripal have their
own sessions, so you should consider submitting to them too).

Please get an abstract, brief summary or a vague title to me as soon as
possible so I can start getting it put together.  Also, if you'd like to be
a co-organizer, please let me drop me a line about that too.  I might be
able to get you some meeting-related niceties for not very much work.

For more information about PAG, see:

  http://www.intlpag.org

Thanks and I look forward to seeing in January,
Scott
