Hello 🪑GCB! Galaxy Community Board We had quite a lively November meeting, with lots of shared tips & tricks for running communities. Check the 📝Meeting notes<https://docs.google.com/document/d/19zv4rata-uVhFW43S8v_Fw83RVYq6jDGXy-1T8A…> for full details! In honour of the communal academic experience of lots of meetings with little getting done, I offer you this gem of a meeting follow-up section 😉. Follow-Up from Meeting 🙏🏾Request: Automate ingest of Galaxy Training Events to Galaxy Events calendar, with tag of training/GTN ⭐️Follow-up: WB raised an issue, can people please upvote and/or action it? https://github.com/galaxyproject/galaxy-hub/issues/2809 🙏🏾Shared google calendar of community calendars (like the Gxy WG) embedded somewhere?

Make more obvious ‘How to join’ and ‘When are our meetings’. ⭐️Follow-up: (https://github.com/galaxyproject/galaxy-hub/pull/2868) Update & added the calendar / links to the GCB page (Linked the FAQ with the info). WB also added meetings onto the Event Horizon (https://github.com/galaxyproject/galaxy-hub/pull/2869) WB following up with NW about invites. 🙏🏾Discuss subdomains / feedback on GalaxyLabs; regional communities not keen for meetings; Roadmap exercise still ongoing; and nobody has time to action the Misconceptions Paper ⭐️Follow-up: Swap timetable<https://docs.google.com/document/d/19zv4rata-uVhFW43S8v_Fw83RVYq6jDGXy-1T8A…> to remove regional meeting (this year); include a subdomain feedback session during AU friendly hours; and change an April meeting into a Misconceptions write-a-thon Resources requested during the meeting and Delivered 🗞️How to automate the Slack/ matrix bridges https://ems-docs.element.io/books/element-cloud-documentation/page/public-s… 🗞️Matrix bots documentation<https://training.galaxyproject.org/training-material/news/2023/12/20/matrix…> and example feeds / info<https://training.galaxyproject.org/training-material/news/2024/06/04/gtn-st…> 🗞️Rolling notes exemplar with SPOC community<https://docs.google.com/document/d/19W--oeFoEgfZbw9MWvky_A__554th-VG3ryOqtf…>, might be interesting to see how we’re using Tabs 🗞️CoFest worked well, including training doc <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1GRAY_uE3dtyaGlKR7rqCXgjrJQUkgch-eyc7Asi…> + tracker doc<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/17BsRGk_PwYdcSlhhfr4BgpDkS4cyZg8-qhv…> (thanks Bérénice for concept!) 🗞️Write-a-thon doc<https://docs.google.com/document/d/179G-VDl7NggXr2AhMPQ8UPrYwoa7KgPd29Us6G7…> also working well for simultaneous editing Further Actions ⭐️Add membership info to our tracker<https://docs.google.com/document/d/19zv4rata-uVhFW43S8v_Fw83RVYq6jDGXy-1T8A…> ⭐️Add meeting topic ideas<https://docs.google.com/document/d/19zv4rata-uVhFW43S8v_Fw83RVYq6jDGXy-1T8A…> for our schedule ⭐️Are you in favour of having April 1st as a Write-a-thon for the Misconceptions paper? If so, please upvote here<https://docs.google.com/document/d/19zv4rata-uVhFW43S8v_Fw83RVYq6jDGXy-1T8A…> To discuss next time: Subdomains / Galaxy Labs Feedback Please, in advance of next meeting, check out different subdomains Check single-cell * https://singlecell.usegalaxy.eu<https://singlecell.usegalaxy.eu/> * https://singlecell.usegalaxy.org<https://singlecell.usegalaxy.org/> * https://singlecell.usegalaxy.org.au<https://singlecell.usegalaxy.org.au/> Genome lab * https://genome.usegalaxy.org.au/ Proteomics lab * https://proteomics.usegalaxy.org.au/ ⭐️Post issues at: https://github.com/usegalaxy-au/galaxy-labs-engine/issues ⭐️Check this PR on our Hub page( https://github.com/galaxyproject/galaxy-hub/pull/2868) I think we should remove the sublinks for each community, and just have the community name + description + link to the community page, which itself would have the sublinks (like the matrix link, etc.). Can I get some votes on that? (May also be a good opportunity to clear out communities that are defunct) Next meeting 👋🏾https://arewemeetingyet.com/London/2025-02-13/08:00/Febru-chairy 🗓️Community Board Google Calendar<https://calendar.google.com/calendar/embed?height=600&wkst=1&ctz=Europe%2FL…> 🗓️Community Board iCalendar<https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/04046604a4f181649420da4335310d7a5…> And with that, I wish you all a very good and much-deserved break. Thank you all for contributing collectively to the GCB, for donating so much of your time to helping each other and the Galaxy communities, and for being nice people to get to collaborate with. Between the development of so many new communities (Mass spec, Plants, Earth); the creation of the Community Building training page (https://training.galaxyproject.org/training-material/topics/community/) the Subdomain unification, the Community Lightning talks pilot, and the Tips & Tricks we’ve shared - I think we’re making this a worthwhile Board for ourselves and each other. ☃️Have a glorious break❄️ ! And for the lower hemisphere, find the shade!🍔⛱️🌞 Cheers!
