Data Carpentry training workshop cancelled . #7

Closed pmergen closed 9 years ago

pmergen commented 9 years ago

Received a mail from Hilmar Lapp that he cannot attend and found no replacement for his (rather big) training offer for the pre-training with Data Carpentry. They usually charge rather high for their courses (several 1000 euro) not sure what the deal was for TDWG and not sure this could have been paid on the JRS grant anyways ? What is the impact on the pre-training week ?

Pat, if you want a response from Hank you should assign it to him. I don't think anybody but him can answer the question.

But this is the sort of thing that is not really a task that needs tracking but a question so could have been done purely by email.

ok this is solved and Hank answered to them. as said I have concerns of using both e-mail and github to follow up on things. if possible for TDWG issues I would prefer to do all in Github, so I can track things and gradually not use the e-mail at all anymore or just for exceptions. As finding back things over time in e-mails is really a pain on long term.
