Meeting Notes

We are collaborating with Uni Graz. Kerstin Kainz will start asking students if they want to join the initiative to improve biological databases from Dezember.

Don't get into too much pressure that you have to present a finished idea when writing text for your thesis. New ideas are formed and clarified during writing and reviewing of text. When you are having trouble to start writing try to set a time for 15 minutes each day where you write using the free flow writing method without the goal (and stress) to finish the text that session. Reviewing the text of others also helps you to improve your own text.

We have a GitLab issue board for issue refinement. Issues which are not clear yet start there and are moved to the regular issue board when they are ready for development. We should use the issue status "triage needed" and "estimation needed" more if applicable, to make clear if an implementation within one week is already feasible.
