Scheduling

  • All-hands project meeting, or smaller discussion groups?
  • Before the SAB meeting or after?
    • A pre-meeting would allow us to refine the agenda of the SAB (although perhaps too late for that)
    • A post-meeting would allow us to set some goals based on comments/advise from the advisors
    • Hinxton folks have more time after the meeting

Discussion topics

  • Cross-site unification of documentation and code; what are our standards for documentation? For code?
  • Organisation, display and querying of RNASeq data (c.f. FlyBase)
  • Database migration
    • What is the plan and timeline for incorporating the new database in the build? In curation workflows?
  • WormBase / ParaSite integration + cross-resource tools (e.g. enrichment tool)
