Dear Galaxy Metabolomics folks, 

As discussed in our last call, the GCC Collaboration Fest (CoFest) will take place on July 9 and 10, directly after the main Galaxy conference (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1c0L4mc7s2JOx0uq6HGP3QE3V5Za20GfCh1e-KKbOoV4/edit#). Participation is free, open to everyone and not coupled to conference registration, although there’s a spreadsheet available for you to sign up (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15TWgpszWEF_QHfWIG818UYJMagcRiio7PckhxrmJtiM/edit#gid=0). 

This is a 2-day collaborative event where the Galaxy community gathers to contribute code, documentation, training materials, challenging analysis problems and use cases. It is open to everyone (regardless of background and skills) who is interested in learning and contributing within small teams on your topics of interest. 

It would be great if we could add 1-3 metabolomics related topics to the agenda :) 

ACTION! Deadline May 31th:

1. You are all welcome to send me suggestions of needed tools, workflows, training or other ideas on which we could work during CoFest, the more concrete the better. 

2. Please let me know if you consider actively joining CoFest and would like to participate in a pre-CoFest meeting to select topics.

I will collect all ideas (from 1) and then organize a meeting in June for everyone who considers joining the CoFest (from 2) to come up with a final list of metabolomics topics that will be added to the official CoFest agenda. 

Looking forward to a great CoFest,

Melanie
