Dear all,
I'm very happy to announce the 3rd RDKit User Group Meeting. The meeting,
which is being hosted by Paul Czodrowski, will take place October 22nd-24th
at Merck in Darmstadt, Germany.
Last year's format seemed to work pretty well and the feedback was
positive, so we will stick to the same format this year:
Days 1 and 2: Talks, lightning talks, roundtable(s), discussion, and
talktorials. For those who didn't attend last year, talktorials are
somewhere between a talk and a tutorial, they cover something interesting
done with the RDKit and include the code used to do the work. During the
presentation you'll give an overview of what you did and also show the
pieces of the code that are central to the work. The idea is to mix the
science up with the tutorial aspects.
Day 3 will be a sprint: those who choose to stay will spend an intense day
working in small groups to produce useful artifacts: new bits of code,
knime nodes, knime workflows, tutorials, documentation, IPython notebooks,
etc. This year we'll try to structure this a bit more and collect a bunch
of ideas for things to work on in advance.
There will also be, of course, social activities.

Paul is looking into getting a reduced hotel rate for the "conference
hotel" (makes me smile), we'll update the invite once that information is
available and will individually notify registrees.
We are looking now for people who are willing to do presentations or
talktorials on the first two days. If you're interested in contributing,
please send Paul and I email. Lighting talks don't need to be arranged too
far in advance; I will start collecting the list of people interested in
doing those shortly before the event.
Many thanks to Paul for volunteering to host the UGM this year!
I'm really looking forward to another interesting and varied agenda, seeing
many of you again, and having the chance to meet some of you for the first
time.
Best Regards,
-greg
