MiG Days

From time to time we gather interested users, resource owners and developers to collaborate for a few days on the projects at hand in the MiG project. We tend to do this at least once a year, but when the chance arises we may take a single joint working day, too.

Next MiG working day

On a previous MiG Working Day, we discussed the future collaboration possibilities and there was some backing for introducing more frequent working days to make sure that we synchronize our efforts and get finished subprojects integrated in the main MiG code base.

However, there is no requirement whatsoever that you participate at all even if you are a core member of the MiG team, and the participation can be limited or full time as you see fit.

We are planning the next MiG Day to take place in May next year at NBI.

As usual we will go to the Beer Festival afterwards.

We are hosting the next MiG Day at NBI...

Those interested will visit the Beer Festival afterwards.

Past Talks

Slides from talks at previous MiG Days are available under Tutorials and talks on the main project page.

Friday the 11th of May 2012 at NBI

We are hosting the next MiG Day at NBI, Auditorium A, and it will take place at the 11th of May. We've invited a number of speakers to tell about the latest developments in relation to MiG as well as the ongoing and future projects.

We are not allowed to drink or eat in the auditorium so coffee and lunch will be served elsewhere. Meet us at Brian's office (NBI building C, third floor) 10-15 minutes to 10 if you want to grab a quick coffee before the meeting or join us at 10.00 in auditorium A otherwise.

Those interested will visit the Beer Festival afterwards.
