Second Debian Med COVID-19 hackathon
Second Debian Med COVID-19 hackathon
[Briefs] Posted Jun 9, 2020 22:53 UTC (Tue) by ris
The Debian Med team joined a COVID-19 Biohackathon last April and is planing on doing it again on June 15-21.
A recently shared pre-publication draft paper highlights which
software tools are considered useful "to Accelerate SARS-CoV-2 and
Coronavirus Research". Many of these tools would benefit from being
packaged in Debian and all the advantages that Debian brings for both
users and upstream alike.
As in the first sprint most tasks do not require any knowledge of biology or medicine, and all types of contributions are welcome: bug triage, testing, documentation, CI, translations, packaging, and code contributions.
