Evaluation of the workshop

  • programming background very different
  • many different research areas (was this good or bad?)
  • some "attitude" problems??
  • networking was good… but it would be more important if everybody's research topic "presentations" should have been done in the first day
  • all the energy and "side" stories compensated for a lack of technical expertise

one day workshops? is it possible?

Version Control

  • the most important ideia coming out of the course
  • main topic for 1 day workshop
  • Are the user interfaces is more important than the tools itself?
  • should we develop our own tool? (based on hgexplorer)
    • study needs and workflows
    • tailor for new students, presentations, workshops

Building the "network"/SoundSoftware Community

  • organize a workshop every year
    • focused on the software used, not in the research itself
    • share code, practices
  • could also be done internally (C4DM)
    • need of bug tracking software
    • wiki to have discussions
  • Advantages of this community
    • "Safer space", more confortable to researchers in the area, easier to ask questions than in specialized forums
  • Online seminar:
    • weekly? probably too much…
    • Adobe Connect??
  • the target community for this project is wider that this workshop's attendees
  • FaceBook group has been active
    • is it "open"/public? - it should be public
  • SoundSoftware could be an aggregator for audio/music software content (fetch info from blogs, etc)
    • watch certain blogs feeds for tags
  • be more social
    • forum?
    • blog links?

Repositories

  • should we host? Probably not:
    • maybe the people that attended the workshop should talk to their universities systems team
    • talk to the supervisors/ people that attended in order that they act on this

Future of the project

  • need for sorting out software, needs, etc—in the community
    • start within C4DM
  • after that, choose tools, etc
