[Biojava-l] BioJava Hackathon in January

[Richard Holland]

Hi all,

The January hackathon is now confirmed. It will take place from  
January 18th-22nd 2010, at the Wellcome Trust Genome Campus (at  
Hinxton, near Cambridge). Exact location on the campus will be  
determined nearer the time as it will depend on final numbers attending.

If you will definitely be attending, _please email me_ to let me know  
as soon as possible so that I can ensure we get a big enough room.  
This is also important because unless I know you're coming, I won't be  
able to arrange you a security pass to get onto the campus.

No funding is available at present so attendance will be at your own  
cost (or your employer's if you can persuade them!). If this changes I  
will let you know but don't hold your hopes too high!

There is no accommodation near the campus itself but there is a free  
bus shuttle linking it to central Cambridge where you can find hotels  
and hostels of all kinds and for all budgets.

The purpose of the hackathon is to make progress towards achieving the  
goals listed on this wiki page, which Andreas Prlic is maintaining:
