Twitter), their first major developer meeting and open science
hackathon. You might know rOpenSci from some of their educational work, leading trainings in R, as well as
their work to create open source packages and tools for open science. </p><p>We’ll also be joined by Max Ogden, who’ll be telling us about his project dat, a system for real-time
replication, transformation, and versioning of large tabular datasets. Interested in what it means
for data to move freely on the web, like the web? Do tune in. Max will
also be talking about how this ties into database package management,
his plans for the project moving forward, and how something like dat
could help address some of the bottlenecks in research.</p><p>And last but not least, we’ll hear from Tiffany Bogich, a former disease ecologist and co-founder of Standard Analytics, an open source tool for organizing, publishing, and sharing research.
Tiffany will be speaking about some of their work thus far, and their
approach to better packaging together research components for
collaboration and reproducibility.</p><p>Have a project, blog post or event you’d like to share relevant to open science? Add it to the etherpad (see line 121). It’s a great way to share what you’re working on and/or interested in with the community. Don’t be shy.</p><p><a href="https://etherpad.mozilla.org/sciencelab-calls-apr10-2014">https://etherpad.mozilla.org/sciencelab-calls-apr10-2014</a></p></div>More here: <a href="http://mozillascience.org/ropenhack-dat-and-publishing-like-the-web-thurs-april-10-11-et/">http://mozillascience.org/ropenhack-dat-and-publishing-like-the-web-thurs-april-10-11-et/</a><div><br></div><div>We hope you'll join us.</div><div><br></div><div>Best,</div><div>K<br><div apple-content-edited="true">
