Fabian Egli@SIB I'm thinking about offering a workshop for open source software users and maintainers with a focus on community building and lowering the hurdles for old and new contributors to facilitate collaboration. While research software is often provided as open source, contributions and continued development are often neglected as core pillars of research software success as a result of not thinking about the software's lifecycle when new tools are published.
Would that topic suit this conference?

on Monday we have a go/no-go and we really want to go
So, are you considering? sign up before Sunday evening!
We are deeply saddened to share the passing of Amos Bairoch, pioneer of bioinformatics and co-founder of SIB. His lifelong commitment for high-quality, open data transformed global research. We honour his legacy by continuing to build the future of bioinformatics. https://www.sib.swiss/news/amos-bairoch-swiss-pioneer-of-bioinformatics-passes-away
🇨🇦Samuel Proulx🇨🇦Huh. Just chatted in person with someone who's been on #mastodon for a while, now, who honestly thought that all the Mastodon domains were run by Mastodon. And having a different domain was, like, just a vanity thing to look cool. It only came up because they were complaining about an issue they were having, and they were on a smaller server (not naming it for anonymity), so I suggested contacting their server admin about the problem. I was surprised when they answered "Dude nobody at big companies reads those reports. It just all goes to AI or whatever." It took some actual convincing to get them to believe that the server they're on does, in fact, have a living breathing human admin who can be talked to.
Anyway, folks, support your #fediverse server admins and moderators. With money, where you can. They're almost certainly getting messages from users who think that reporting things to an admin here is exactly like reporting stuff to Facebook or Google. IE: screaming at a giant faceless entity who's never going to care or do anything about whatever your problem is.

Kees CookWhen a kernel commit starts with "In A.D. 1582 Pope Gregory XIII found that ..." you know you're in for a ride:

Very nice! example of the Dutch government understanding the need of FAIR data, also needed for their own business processes etc.
developer.overheid.nlWisten jullie dat de overheid Uniform Resource Identifiers (URI's) aanbiedt voor allerlei datapunten?
Wij gebruiken deze TOOI-URI's bijvoorbeeld voor ons nieuwe API-register. Zo hoeven we niet zelf de informatie over de organisaties in ons register op te slaan maar kunnen we deze ophalen aan de hand van de URI.
Een voorbeeld van zo'n organisatie-identifier is bijvoorbeeld die van gemeente Almelo: https://identifier.overheid.nl/tooi/id/gemeente/gm0141
