We’ve been talking about organising a Bioconductor event this year. The open challenges would be a great headline for it!

Sonali Kumari (16:34:46): > Hello, I am sonali kumari, a 3rd-year undergraduate student from India. I am a current outreachy intern at Bioconductor, and my mentor is@Andres Wokaty. Feel free to contact me if you need any volunteers or help for Hactoberfest. I will be more than happy to help.

Kevin Rue-Albrecht (17:05:15) (in thread): > Hi and thanks! > As things stand, I may be the one who’ll try to get Bioconductor registered with DigitalOcean as an organisation participating in Hacktoberfest this year. > From there, we’ll advertise to the community to get developers involved (opening their repositories for contributions) and contributors involved (opening PRs in October). > Let me know if/how you’d like to help. I’ll message here too when I identify things people can help with!

Kevin Rue-Albrecht (04:17:22): > On my way to work, anyone wants to help me read instructions athttps://hacktoberfest.comto figure out what to do to for Bioconductor to participate this year?I’llhave a closer read myself asap - Attachment (hacktoberfest.com): Hacktoberfest 2023 > Hacktoberfest: a month-long celebration of open-source projects, their maintainers, and the entire community of contributors.

Charlotte Soneson (04:38:31) (in thread): > My take-aways:slightly_smiling_face: > * Prepare repositories by adding labels and suitable issues (https://hacktoberfest.com/participation/#maintainers) - to me it seemed like this is the only required action (and even without it, contributors could still ask for PRs to be labeled ashacktoberfest-accepted) > * Potentially organize events (https://hacktoberfest.com/events/#organizers), which I suppose would be more subproject-specific?

Kevin Rue-Albrecht (04:39:47) (in thread): > So I guess the same as every year. Perhaps no need to tryhard a Bioconductor level event

Kevin Rue-Albrecht (04:40:15) (in thread): > Of course there could be events related to Bioconductor repositories (eg website)

2023-09-06

Leo Lahti (07:03:07) (in thread): > we can join as individual Bioc development projects, and perhaps use this to plan how to promote more coordinated community action for next year

Kevin Rue-Albrecht (07:18:57) (in thread): > yup, in summary, what I meant is: > * initialise a new quarto markdown website > * invite Bioconductor developers maintaining a repository participating in hacktoberfest to add an entry/page in the website to give extra visibility to their project

Kevin Rue-Albrecht (07:20:24) (in thread): > unless someone can point to an existing website with suitable space to create that sort of content

Taylor Reiter (15:41:31): > Hi Bioconductor! We atArcadia Scienceare hosting amini-hackathon(in person) this October in celebration of Hacktoberfest & to give back to the bioinformatics open source community. In the lead up to this, we’re curating a set of repositories that are accepting PRs. While we’ll provide this document to our hacktoberfest participants, we’d like to share it with the broader bioinformatics open source community to better match skills/interests with software needs. Have bioconductor maintainers tagged issues/repos that are hacktoberfest accepted yet? I would love to add them/accept suggestions including them inthis google doc!

Maria Doyle (09:02:47) (in thread): > @Taylor Reiterapologies for the delayed response, it’s been busy here! Is it still possible for us to join the Hacktoberfest initiative? We’d like to encourage Bioconductor maintainers who are interested to add their repos to your document. We see great value in participating and hope it’s not too late to collaborate. > > Thanks and looking forward to your reply!

Taylor Reiter (10:15:17) (in thread): > Please@Zainab Ashimiyu-Abdusalam, we would love if you share this out!@Maria Doyleyes it is still possible to join Hacktoberfest, both for this document and more generally. The event lasts through the end of October, so there is still plenty of time. We would love to see Bioconductor maintainers participating!

Maria Doyle (09:29:17) (in thread): > @Taylor Reitercan you help with@Kozo Nishida’s question > > I’d like to add my repository to their list.https://github.com/kozo2/BiocYouTubeTimestampsHowever, most of the repositories inthe Google Docseem to be under organizations. Is it okay to suggest additions tothe Google Docwhile keeping my repository under my user account?

Taylor Reiter (20:06:28) (in thread): > @Maria Doyle@Kozo NishidaYes it’s totally fine to add a repository to the google doc that is housed under a user account:slightly_smiling_face:
