• other news

Notes

1. About 170 unique registered users in My-Plant, the usage tampering off recently, talked about how to make users coming back

2. The GCE10 paper draft ready for the super computing meeting, asking PIs to review it

3. The TACC sysadmins are busy with spec file and other system mainteinance, will done end of next week and help with installing PHLAWD on ranger

4. Decided to look into phylota pipeline as an alternative all2all single linkage clustering pipeline

5. 1kp pipeline setting up going on well in TACC, this pipeline runs through the following steps: genewise to build gene model - blast - filter - cluster - MULSCLE - PAML (build trees? calculate Ka/Ks?), eventually get an tab-delimited file. TACC is extending the pipeline so that PHLAWD and other applications can be plugged in later.

6. Discussions on how to allow researchers to submit data; applications that allow users to build their own tree; The API and development tool kit that allow users to plugg in their own applications in the future; The imminent stand alone server for the big treeviewer; Why some projects move faster than the others (the distributive nature of the developers slow thing down)
