Agenda

1) iPlant 2010 Meeting – Tree Reconciliation poster. Andrew Lenards prepared a poster that describes the proposed workflow for the the tree reconciliation service. The poster was well attended and both Sheldon and Andy were engaged in a lot of discussion. In general, the conference had a positive tone. There were some skeptics but also a lot of positive feedback, especially about the clarification on what is going on with the grand challenge projects. [Download the poster...]
