    <p>Thanks so much for this Rowland, really appreciate having the
      report - it sounds like the project was a distinct success. <br>
    </p>
    <p>Please do pass on our congratulations to Sadia and Huan. <br>
    </p>
    <p>In terms of a grant request for Sadia and/or Huan, I think
      Russell has a fair point, however I see the appropriate path here
      to request travel funding through the Grants process - ie if Sadia
      or Huan would like travel expenses and/or a Miniconf day ticket
      then a Grant Proposal should be submitted, using the Stemformatics
      Data Portal work as the justification. The community then
      considers it for two weeks, then Council makes a final decision. <br>
    </p>
    <p>Does this seem reasonable?</p>
    <p>Best, Kathy<br>

        </div>
        <div>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.</div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>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.<br>
        </div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>I would also like to thank NeCTAR for providing the cloud
          compute and Isha Nagpal who provided assistance to the
          students during this project.<br>
        </div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>Finally, on the 29th of March Russell Coker made a comment
          that stated:</div>
        <div>
          <div><i>Finally if this grant application is approved I
              suggest that we make a further</i></div>
          <div><i>offer of travel expenses if one of the developers of
              this project is accepted</i></div>
          <div><i>as a speaker at an LCA miniconf.  The general practice
              is that speakers at the</i></div>
          <div><i>main conference may be offered travel expenses from
              the LCA budget but not for</i></div>
          <div><i>miniconf speakers.  I think that we should make it a
              standard practice that a</i></div>
          <div><i>miniconf speaker who is speaking about work performed
              under an LA grant should</i></div>
          <div><i>be offered a further grant towards travel expenses
              from anywhere in Australia</i></div>
          <div><i>or NZ.</i></div>
        </div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>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.</div>

        </div>
        <div>Please let me know if you have any comments or questions.</div>
