If you’ll be at BOSC or ISMB - please see this page and sign your name if you would like to try and meet up. We’ll do a developer’s dinner as well as have a BoF.
I’ve added a page about RSS feeds in BioPerl. These include links to CVS commits as a RSS feed. This a bit of a hack using cvs2rss and cvs2cl and I have hardcoded it to show the last 30 commits only.
In addition RSS news is now embedded on the main BioPerl and Tracking CVS commits webpages to make for better interlinking between the news and wiki site ( you might even be reading this there).
[Read More]The newest summary of the BioPerl mailing lists has been posted to the wiki:
Post gripes, harrassments, and faint praises at the regular places.
The first of a biweekly summary of BioPerl mailing list summaries has been posted to the wiki:
These will likely be archived on the wiki but may be moved to a more suitable location in the future (maybe to this blog?).
I plan on starting a weekly, possibly biweekly, summary of mailing list traffic. These will be somewhat in the same vein as the Perl5 or Perl6 summaries and will be posted on the blog here and sent to the bioperl-l mail list. Barring another natural disaster here, these should start up next week (covering mail list traffic starting from April 1). The summaries will cover traffic mainly from bioperl-l (the main mail list) but will include biosql-l, since it’s fairly low traffic, and bugs/module updates from bioperl-guts-l.
[Read More]GMANE has been tracking BioPerl traffic for a few years now.
You can see the page here There are several interfaces there including threaded and BLOG-like.
Those interested in tracking the mailing list in RSS readers should grab this link.
There is also a search option for the archives. Try to search GMANE for BLAST
