Hello all,

As somewhat expected, John Sulston could not make a March/April date  
for the OWW seminar series.   However, he brought up some other  
interesting speaker suggestions (see email below).  I am going to  
officially invite John Wilbanks today for the March date.  The April  
date remains open.  If you have ideas/suggestions/preferences on a  
speaker to invite, let me know.

Thanks,
Sri Kosuri

Message-ID: <cfd758050602051820x3ca0de1cx4a3fdddd6ad35e05@mail.gmail.com>

Hello all,

As I mentioned in the meeting/teleconference the week before last, I
volunteered to produce an OWW newsletter to try and promote some of the
interesting things going on and to encourage people to get involved in some
of the community activities.  If you have any news, (novel ways of using
OWW, interesting collaborations, new labs joining, cat stuck up a tree) then
please e-mail me, pictures are also welcome.  The news will be put onto the
Wiki, and a short e-mail sent out linking to the stories.  I think it can
probably run a little like the "in the news" section of Wikipedia.

cheers,
John

John,

One bit of news might be the launch of the new MIT BE.109 lab  
residing on OWW.

See

John,

Thanks for doing this. You may also want to highlight stuff going on 
with the OWW steering committee, and encourage people to put in their 
two cents. This could help to remind people that we are trying to 
make OWW an interactive community, and participation from all in 
shaping that community is wanted and needed. Maybe we can come up 
with a short list of community pages to highlight as well, perhaps 
from the list of shared resources.

Message-ID: <7942cff94550ce024614b491c1d88b6d@mit.edu>

Has anyone submitted a poster title for OpenWetWare for the BE retreat? 
  I think it would be good to have a poster there (as well as at other 
department retreats at other institutions).

If the new OWW logo isn't ready in time, perhaps we could put together 
a temporary poster for the retreat.

Nothing complicated, even just a series of screenshots from existing 
OWW pages might be sufficient.

I think this is a great idea, and I'd be willing to put it together
(with suggestions) since I don't have a research poster to present. 
Let me know title suggestions and I'll submit one this week.

sounds good to me. I'd propose "OpenWetWare: A Wiki Serving the Biological
Research Community", like on the business cards.

is it something we would want to have up at all three poster sessions? i can
arrange that if we want it. otherwise, we should pick the session in which
to group it.

1) OK Sean is the go to person on this.

2) Danielle's title sounds fine to me.

3) And yeah, I think that the poster should be up all three sessions, 
but perhaps Sean need only be available to answer questions about OWW 
for one session (or even zero, if we think it's not necessary).

(Thanks Sean for taking the lead on this!)

Here is a little poster that I put together just to see what it may look 
like. The text would be short phrases that would entice labs to join OWW. 
The bottom would probably contain text about how they can join, contact 
info, etc.

The original template is about 30x30 inches large.

Hi all,
We'd like to have a meeting to discuss ways to improve the wiki's  
features and make it easier for people to become "back-end users";  
people who contribute to the organization, usability and quality of  
OWW at a wiki-wide level.

This meeting might discuss topics like -

Software development
Community development
Data management

Check out the page below to sign up for the meeting, pick a time and

Hello again,

Based on responses received the community development subgroup will  
be meeting next Tuesday, 21st Feb. at 2pm.  Room TBA.   
Teleconferencing may be possible for those interested.  This isn't  
intended as a full steering committee meeting but instead for members  
interested in actively working on community development.

The plan for the meeting is to come up with an action list to enable  
"back-end" users and make it easier to  contribute in general.  The  
current version of the community portal page attempts to organize  
some of these efforts.

Thanks,

Barry

Subject: [OWW-SC] Today's meeting - 2pm in 32-262
Message-ID: <3D4C6944-989C-48C7-B859-680CD5AF32D5@mit.edu>

Hi all, apologies for leaving you all guessing until now.  Today's  
community development sub group meeting will be taking place in  
32-262 at 2pm.  I've linked the location of the room at the bottom of  
this email.  The meeting will be loosely structured around the  
community portal page of OWW.

http://openwetware.org/wiki/OpenWetWare:Community_Portal

We hope to have audio conferencing working so if you are not on site  
and would like to contribute, please send me a phone number you can  
be contacted at.

Many thanks,

Barry

Also check out the link to the wikipedia introduction from the

Getting started 3 and Getting started 4 are particularly bleak.

Hi All,
I've finished the first part of the news (a grand total of 2 pieces of
news..) http://openwetware.org/wiki/Novel_uses_of_OpenWetWare  I'll
aim for a new piece every fortnight or so.  Please feel free to edit
it as you see fit.  I'll comment on Jennyn's discussion page
http://openwetware.org/wiki/Information_Management_Discussion as to
where the news could fit into the main page.  Please e-mail me with
any other tidbits, and let me know if you think the style is too
formal, the aim was to entice users into areas of OWW that they do not
normally see, for the next one I'll work on the protocols..

cheers,
John

    Ok, I decided to be nice to Sri. I implemented the recent changes
    list limited to different titles as discussed at the previous
    meeting. Currently there's no interface at all for this (I'd
    rather not figure out how to create the front end), but here's the
    basic info. The general use I see for this is for you to bookmark
    the url that you really care about once you can create the
    url. Reshma's already taken advantage of it, so look at her page.
    
    Info about how to use it will be up shortly at
    http://openwetware.org/wiki/OpenWetWare:Recentchangeslimit

Nothing like putting the incompetent in charge to force the competent  
to do more than they want to.

Thanks!

Sri,

Keep up the great work!
You are almost ready to graduate and become a full professor.
