Hi everyone, this is just a short intro to let you know that Q-Leap Networks, the company behind Qlustar (a Debian/Ubuntu based HPC/Storage Cluster solution) is now entering a closer relationship with the Debian Med project. I am Roland Fehrenbacher, theoretical physicist (high-temperature superconductivity) and founder of Q-Leap Networks, which some of you may recall from Tony's presentation of Qlustar at the recent Debian Med Sprint. Two weeks ago, Steffen took me along to an NGS meeting in Rostock and on the way back - a long train ride through 3/4 of Germany - I decided that Q-Leap shall put some tangible effort to its website promise to support Debian Med.
The initial focus of our effort will be on packaging, i.e. long-term maintenance of: + mpiblast: http://www.mpiblast.org/ + frealign: http://grigoriefflab.janelia.org/frealign + eman2: http://blake.bcm.edu/emanwiki/ + relion: http://www2.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk/relion/index.php/Main_Page and we will then see how this develops towards data management and cloud/cluster setups. We also have a particular interest in backporting to Wheezy as one of our officially supported platforms, the other is Ubuntu Precise. New to preparing packages for Debian main, we are still in the learning phase of all the ever developing tools and web sites out there and how to match those best with our internal routine. I am very curious about the kinds of interactions that will develop over the mailing list and look forward to possibly meet some more of you in person at your next Sprint. On a side note: Q-Leap employs a Debian Maintainer (Goswin v. Brederlow) since many years.
