 SUBJECT: SGVLUG Meeting this Thursday 03/06. Topic: Data Carpentry
and Open Science

      Hi all,   
   Reminder that we have an SGVLUG meeting this Thursday. We'll be
meeting at OpenX. I'm sure we'll have a lot to talk about after SCaLE.
  
   Please RSVP on Meetup or with me as soon as possible. Remember, I
have to give OpenX a list of names. I'd like a rough count by Tuesday
night, though we'll continue to accept RSVPs till Thursday noon. 

   If we have enough attendees, I'll be running a raffle using our
leftover booth swag. Everyone gets a free raffle ticket, but you can
increase your chances by buying more tickets. The funds go towards our
expenses including Meetup, web hosting, and domain names. 

   Some of our members have been very generous in their donations of
prizes. Much thanks goes to Tux Lab for manufacturing and donating the
booth swag and to Steven for buying the rest of the booth prizes. We
also had sponsored prizes from previous years like No Starch ebook
vouchers and a Linux kernel Tux poster. And I have this year's A/V
team t-shirts.

       Our speaker this month is Gail P. Clement, Head of Research
Services at Caltech and recent SGVLUG member. She'll be doing a class
on Data Carpentry and Open Science.

    TIME: Thursday, March 9th, from 7pm to 9pm   LOCATION: OpenX, 888
E Walnut St, Pasadena, CA    TOPIC: Data Carpentry and Open Science
   SPEAKER: Gail P. Clement, Head of Research Services @ Caltech

   TOPIC:    The open science movement calls for open sharing of
research findings and greater trust, transparency, and reuseability in
making claims and reporting results. A researcher-to-researcher
training community known as Carpentry (Software Carpentry, Data
Carpentry, and others) has emerged to prepare researchers to practice
open science using more open and collaborative practices; open source
tools; and openly licensed and distributed methods, data, code. 

   In this program, the Head of Research Services at the Caltech
Library will describe the Carpentry movement; illustrate how lesson
development and delivery takes place; and lead participants through a
sample interactive lesson from Data Carpentry. 

   This is a class. Please bring a laptop. Installation instructions
and lesson outline will be posted ahead of time. WE WILL COMMENT IN
THE MEETUP, IF THERE ARE ANY UPDATES.
