Hi all, there is definitely a strong interest in the Debian Med project. The computational needs of biologists are exploding, and cloud computing could be a solution. However, I am already willing to mentor another project, the "Large dataset manager", so whoever is intersted in having official EC2 images, please step up. Otherwise, whether I am available will depend on the success of the other project in getting accepted. Lastly, as a caveat I must say that to use the Amazon computer cloud, one has to install some non-free software written in Java… Have a nice day, -- Charles Plessy Tsurumi, Kanagawa, Japan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
