[Linux-aus] Final report on Stemformatics Data Portal

[Rowland Mosbergen]

Hi All,

This is a link to the final report for the Stemformatics Data Portal
student project:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9dIBx_EIj7wcEx0cjZtalpVMms/view?usp=sharing

Both Sadia Waleem and Huan Wang did a great job on this project. We
migrated over 342 public datasets via a python client and provided a web
interface with enough functionality to think that this prototype is worth
developing further.

I would like to thank Linux Australia for providing us with the bursary for
this project and providing feedback to the original design, particularly
around the idea of data licensing.

I would also like to thank NeCTAR for providing the cloud compute and Isha
Nagpal who provided assistance to the students during this project.

Finally, on the 29th of March Russell Coker made a comment that stated:
*Finally if this grant application is approved I suggest that we make a
further*
*offer of travel expenses if one of the developers of this project is
accepted*
*as a speaker at an LCA miniconf.  The general practice is that speakers at
the*
*main conference may be offered travel expenses from the LCA budget but not
for*
*miniconf speakers.  I think that we should make it a standard practice
that a*
*miniconf speaker who is speaking about work performed under an LA grant
should*
*be offered a further grant towards travel expenses from anywhere in
Australia*
*or NZ.*

I have not had a chat with Sadia or Huan about this, but I would be willing
to chase this up if Linux Australia was interested.

Please let me know if you have any comments or questions.

Regards,

Rowland
