[MOBY-l] jamboree part one deadline approaching

[Benjamin Good]

Hi everyone,

  First, thanks to those of you who have contributed to the first  
phase of the jamboree!  Things are going well so far, but we are still  
in need of a few more volunteers.  The deadline for participating in  
phase one is now set for November 10, so there is still time.  If you  
haven't done so already, please do go to

http://www.entitydescriber.org/ed/mobyjamboreelogin.html

and follow the instructions there to participate.

Here are a few reasons why you might want to spend some time with this:

1) you can help improve the annotation and thus the utility of biomoby  
services
2) you can contribute data that will help to inform the design of  
future interfaces for annotating and interacting with semantic web  
services
3) you can earn yourself $20 in Amazon gift certificates (if you are  
among the first 10 to finish annotating your services).  We have only  
had 4 people complete this phase so far, so there are still 6  
remaining to give out.

best regards
-Ben

p.s.  Please use firefox and one of the openid providers suggested on  
the login page.  It does work in other browsers and with other  
providers sometimes, but we can't guarantee it at this point  
(definitely does not work in IE or Chrome).  Also, to claim your award  
when you finish, please send me an email (as we aren't collecting  
email addresses in the login process).
