hello! welcome to #dvn, an IRC channel on Freenode about The Dataverse Network Project, a web application for sharing, citing, analyzing, and preserving research data |
| 22:24 |
|
pdurbin |
our website is http://thedata.org and we're starting to put code up at https://github.com/dvn but for a long time we've been at http://sourceforge.net/projects/dvn/ |
| 22:25 |
|
pdurbin |
we call our project DVN for short :) |
| 22:26 |
|
pdurbin |
i'm a new developer for the DVN and you can read more about me at http://people.iq.harvard.edu/~pdurbin |

i'm pretty into open source and IRC. many, many project have a presence here on freenode and i thought #dvn should be here too |
| 22:27 |

that was a typo. don't worry about that. i'm sure to make more :) |
| 22:30 |
|
pdurbin |
i'd like to gather together everyone who's interested in the DVN... users, developers, people in charge of deployments |
| 22:32 |
|
pdurbin |
not all IRC channels are logged, but i indicated that this one is logged in the /topic so people aren't surprised when they /join |
| 22:32 |
|
pdurbin |
why are we logging this channel? |
| 22:33 |

well... "we live in a world of infinitely searchable micro-content, and every contribution, however small, enriches all of us" ... according to Coding Horror: When In Doubt, Make It Public - http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/2007/04/when-in-doubt-make-it-public.html |
| 22:34 |
|
pdurbin |
so the idea is that we'll talk about the DVN and bounce ideas off each other |
| 22:34 |
|
pdurbin |
we'll help each other out |
| 22:35 |
|
pdurbin |
actually, the DVN one of several products that come out of The Institute for Quantitative Social Science (IQSS) at Harvard University: http://www.iq.harvard.edu/products |
| 22:37 |
|
pdurbin |
we can set up logs for other products and projects too. it's just a matter of making a tweak to the bot.conf file at https://github.com/dvn/iqirclog-vagrant |

|
pdurbin |
so just let me know :) |
