Tentative agenda:
a) Introductions/newcomers
b) Vuela project, lessons learned - @paz
c) A report directly from AfricaOSH!
d) Learning something new from a GOSHer: HiSeq project with @kaspar
As @ryanfobel mentioned in GOSH Riot channel, the idea is to rotate meeting times so everyone has a chance to attend. Suggestions, constributions, etc welcome in this post.
I know not all GOSHers check gitlab, so I also posted it in other channels like Riot.
As there were no suggestions and I’m responsible for that issue, for this time I picked a topic that is currently being actively discussed in the forum (New funding concepts, funding toolchain for GOSH?)
Regarding the other sections, as I didn’t receive comments I contacted diverse goshers - @nanocastro and @julianstirling replied and are available for the time of the call.
Hopefully after this 1st call the following will have more participation in the making of the agenda. At least that would make things easier for me!
It is worth noting that the hour change in Europe happens on March 31st. So if you want to do the call at 4PM in Geneva it will be CEST (GMT+2) not CET. Assuming this is the plan the plan, people should hopefully be able to find their local time here. Hour changes suck.
What about an overview explanation of what is actually in the DNA sequencing machine you are working on? To many of us it is just a black box full of magic.
Ok! Let’s try your instance @kaspar and maybe we won’t have to bother @jcm80 next month.
Don’t worry so much about the 15’! My thoughts on this were more about introducing a topic so people can afterwards do some research on their own. A place where to start, get some of the jargon explained, etc. And please feel free to suggest something different if you think it can work better.
Is anyone opposing to move this meeting 1 week forward? I was incredibly busy and could not follow up with the preparations (contacting people, who is talking about what, etc)
