Hi all;
A friendly reminder to all of us Python bioinformatics folks;
the early registration deadline for the Bioinformatics Open Source
Conference (BOSC) is this Friday, May 15th:

http://www.open-bio.org/wiki/BOSC_2009

BOSC is on in Stockholm, Sweden from June 27th to 28th, and takes
place in conjunction with the ISMB meeting.

Peter will be there presenting an update on the latest and greatest
in Biopython. I will be giving a 10 minute talk during the Data 
and Analysis Management section about ideas for publishing
biological data on the web with Python examples. Generally, BOSC is
a great chance to meet like-minded informatics folks and learn about
all the great tools being developed out there.

I mentioned previously the idea of an informal Biopython hackathon on
the Monday and Tuesday after BOSC. Basically, this would be a chance
to sit down and do some Biopython programming while being able to
physically talk. I will definitely be there and am up for some coding
with as many people as are inclined; Peter and Tiago responded favorably
to the idea earlier. If you are at all interested send an e-mail. We can
keep it informal with a few people, and I will try to organize space if
it looks like we will have more.

Looking forward to seeing everyone there,
Brad
