Hello,
As part of the software carpentry community, and also as part of the scientific 
community (life sciences), constantly using HPC resources (and constantly 
getting stucked in the process), I think having HPC lessons as part of the 
workshops is actually a necessity!

Thanks for bringing this up

Best
Tania

Subject: [Discuss] hpc-novice revival?

Dear list members,

as 2016 ends, 2017 begins. With it, some unique opportunities are
arising to revive hpc-novice, aka the novice HPC lessons that we once
discussed and laid out to get into SC16.

https://github.com/swcarpentry/hpc-novice

I see 2 possible venues in the near future in my geographic proximity,
where we could apply for having a HPC novice lesson take place.

parallel 2017: http://www.parallelcon.de/call_en.php (small and new
conference)
ISC2017: http://isc-hpc.com/tutorials.html (one of the standard HPC
conferences in the year)
[I am sure you can list more conferences on your continent here ...]

and of course:
https://www.software.ac.uk/cw17 (as a venue for having a first course or
for working on its contents)

To cut a long mail short: Who would be interested in trying to bring
hpc-novice to new life? Or in other words, does the software carpentry
community still think a hpc-novice lesson is worth pursuing?

Best,
Peter


PS. I am currently unclear who maintains the above mentioned repo
swcarpentry/hpc-novice as there are 4 unanswered PRs, some of which are
over a year old.
