Hello all,

The executive summary:
  1. We have moved our registration deadline to June 22. Register by the end of Wednesday and save 25% or $200 on your registration.
  2. Hotel rooms can now be booked through June 30. The hotel is where the conference is, it's a good price, it's in a cool neighborhood, and it's right next to the UMN campus.
And if you are wondering what GCC2022 is about...

GCC2022 brings together hundreds of researchers, trainers, tool developers, software engineers, and  computational infrastructure providers, all addressing common challenges in data intensive science using the Galaxy data integration and analysis platform.

See below for links and more news.

I/We hope to see you in Minneapolis in one month!

PS: No, you can never completely leave the Galaxy.  You knew this right?
PPS: We moved these dates back because a particularly bad interaction between the (spiffy!) MailChimp service we have been using for GCC2022, and Galaxy's (only semi-functional!) MailMan3 server caused no email to be delivered to several mailing lists since the end of April.  So, now is your chance.  Please do register by Wednesday.
