<br>
Speaking as part of the BOSC organising committee, please<br>
come to Basel this summer and submit your open source<br>
bioinformatics abstracts soon.<br>
<br>
Speaking as a Biopython developer, we should start planning<br>
our traditional annual Biopython Project Update talk. As usual,<br>
are there any volunteers from our contributors who would like<br>
to present this? If not, I am hoping to be there myself.<br>
<br>
We have templates for the abstracts submitted in recent years,<br>
and slide decks too - have a look at some of the past talk slides<br>
and videos if you are interested:<br>
