Agenda Notes

Sohel can't make it this week, so we won't be having an in-depth discussion of refgenomes - Mary will give us an update.

Dan - I have volunteered you for SWUG outreach - can you check the emails to the software-group from gohelp and make sure everything has been answered adequately & is in the FAQ?

Present at meeting

Chris, Gail, Amelia, John, Mary, Seth

Agenda Preamble

This will be our regular meeting time, every 2 weeks. I realise it's not ideal for everyone, Stan won't be able to consistently make it. But it's the best that can be done given our constraints. Let's try it for a while; we can try an alternating slot later in the year.

  • ISSUE: Identifier tracking. Matching ref. genome ids to MOD ids. Stan says that EBI has a tool we might be able to use.
    • Stan sent an interpro mapping file but we are not sure if this is what we need or if it's the same as gp2protein.
    • TODO Set up a phone call with Chris, Stan, Ben, Sohel, Mary to discuss this.
