[MOBY-dev] [moby] BioMOBY at ISMB / BOSC 2006

[Mark Wilkinson]

Hi Pieter,

Nobody from the Vancouver crew will be at that meeting, unfortunately,
but a BOF would be really great - beach or no beach :-)  I suspect that
some of the Madrid/Barcelona team will be at ISMB as well, and it would
be really great for us to somehow better coordinate with their
activities.

A MOBY Booze-flow pipeline sounds like something I am going to regret
missing!

"Since the point of a definition is to explain the meaning of a term to
   someone who is unfamiliar with its proper application, the use of
language that doesn't help such a person learn how to apply the term is
 pointless. Thus, "happiness is a warm puppy" may be a lovely thought,
                     but it is a lousy definition."
