Dear EasyBuild & Lmod enthusiasts,
We would like to invite you to participate in a 3-day EasyBuild/Lmod
workshop which is held Wed-Fri 11-13 November 2015 at the Texas
Advanced Computing Center (TACC) in Austin, in conjunction with SC15.
The intention of this workshop is to introduce EasyBuid and Lmod to
people who are not familiar with the tools yet, and to bring members
of the EasyBuild/Lmod communities together to discuss past, present
and future of the tools and to actively work together on further
improving them.
A preliminary agenda is included below (note: subject to minor changes).
Only attending part of the workshop (e.g., only the 1st day, or only
the hands-on sessions) is not a problem.
