Hello all; As many of you may know, quite a few people involved with the open-bio projects (http://www.open-bio.org/) are participating in a two-part hackathon, sponsored by the nice folks at O'Reilly and Electric Genetics. This hackathon gives the motley crew involved with various open source bioinformatics projects (ie. BioPerl, BioJava, Biopython, DAS, Ensembl, BioRuby, GO, MOBY, OmniGene...) a chance to get together and get some serious hacking done. The first part took place at the O'Reilly Bioinformatics Conference in Tucson during the end of January. Due to the fact that all of us involved are hard working and smarter than your average bear, we accomplished quite a bit of good stuff and were very proud of ourselves. Big pats on the back all around. This mail is to let you know that the second part of the hackathon will be taking place next week in Cape Town, South Africa. You can find tons of detail about the schedule and plans on the Electric Genetics website: http://www.egenetics.com/?Section=Biohackathon_details&Parent=open_source If you're keen to follow the exciting world of open-source bioinformatics hacking play-by-play, we'll be fully on-line at: http://www.technophage.com This page will feature technical details of what we're working on, amazing pictures of South Africa, and color commentary featuring all of those nasty tidbits you've always wanted to hear about your favorite bioinformatics programmer.
