I'm so glad that you're doing this and I've very excited to help do my small part to help! My boss very graciously allowed me to support this effort next week instead of my normal work. I just requested team membership on Salsa so that I can be more useful during this effort, and in the future as well, time allowing. > Most tasks do not require any knowledge of biology or medicine, and all > types of contributions are welcome: bug triage, testing, documentation, > CI, translations, packaging, and code contributions. Speaking of being more useful, in addition to Debian and engineering experience, I actually do have a Biology (and Pre-Med) undergrad degree so I know enough to be dangerous. ;) In all seriousness, since I am conversant in the Bio-Med world, what do you most need help with that would benefit from someone who has a little background? Happy to help with anything, but I want to help you have the best-possible impact! Looking forward to helping next week!! -Olek
