Hello,

The biojava project is planning a hackathon in January and were wondering
if it were possible to set up an irc channel to facilitate on-site &
off-site communication between participants.

We could register as a group on Freenode

> http://freenode.net/group_registration.shtml

or maybe thinking more broadly we should set one up for open-bio to allow
for cross-project communication?

Creating a channel on Freenode is as simple as saying:

/join #openbio or
/join #biojava


(for example, see irc://irc.freenode.net/#bioperl).

It's a good idea to get registered, but it certainly isn't necessary.


See you there :-)

Dan.

Michael,

Do we generate enough traffic to make an open-bio-specific channel necessary?  We have a bioperl-specific channel on freenode, for instance, and we're not getting tons of traffic there as of yet.  Also, this list isn't exactly high-traffic, so it could just as easily function for cross-project discussions.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not necessarily against this, just trying to see if it's worth the effort in starting this up and maintaining it.

Cool, I didn't know one could do that.

Sure, though I don't remember the exact dates of the biojava hackathon,
some time in mid-January.

Thanks, Chris.  I imagine our IRC channel will only really be useful for
this one-time event.  I think we'll just create one on the fly as Dan
suggested in a separate email.

I will be hanging out in the following channels:

#openbio
#bioperl
#diybio - a channel for http://diybio.org/
#hplusroadmap - a channel for the following communities:
   http://openmanufacturing.net/ and http://openmanufacturing.org/
   http://replab.org/
   http://diybio.org/
   http://pinkarmy.org/
   http://syntheticbiology.org/
   http://igem.org/
   .. and a few others. We're mostly developers working on "apt-get
but for hardware" (downloading hardware over the web). But for some
reason we spend a lot of time using biopython ;-).

I hope #openbio becomes more active in the near future, this will be awesome.
