microGalaxy Hackathon for tool development
by Paul Zierep 11 Sep '26

11 Sep '26

Dear microGalaxy community, Now that our community paper is accepted, we can try to focus more on things like tool maintenance. As discussed in our last meeting, many - also highly used - microGalaxy tools are outdated. This includes tools in IUC https://github.com/galaxyproject/tools-iuc/issues/8301. We therefore plan a hackathon to update those tools. The main idea is to block some time for everyone that allows this work and also coordinate a bit on who does what. Please check for a day that works for you: https://terminplaner.dfn.de/public/polls/cebe393c-4d64-4541-90a2-cc1dd56393… It’s perfectly fine if there is only a short US/AU/EU overlap - the day can still serve as a dedicated block of time that you can use for tool maintenance. Best, Paul -- Dr. Paul Zierep Chair for Bioinformatics Department of Computer Science University of Freiburg Georges-Koehler-Allee 079, Room 1005a, D-79110 Freiburg, Germany E-mail: zierep(a)informatik.uni-freiburg.de <erxleben(a)informatik.uni-freiburg.de> Tel. 0049 761 203 54129 European Galaxy Team https://galaxyproject.eu https://usegalaxy.eu
