JF/Sylvain: Can you please forward this to bic-users if my attempt
didn't make it? (thanks)

Hi all,

I have been asked a few times over the last months for help regarding
getting the entire MINC/etc toolchain onto a laptop, home machine or
indeed any machine not at the BIC.

So, given that my time at the BIC is running out I am interested as to
just how many people would be interested in such a seminar should I
run it.  Currently the best time that I can think of would be 10:30 ->
11:30 on Tuesday next week in the Grandpre. It doesn't seem to be
booked so far...

If you are interested in such a thing please reply be email to
a.janke at gmail.com.  If I get more than 10 responses or so I guess it
is on. :)

I plan to cover topics such as:

  1) Why you would do this.... (speed benchmarking etc)
  2) MINC/BIC on Linux/Mac/OSX/WindowsXP/VMWARE/Cygwin (basic
make/configure/etc)
  3) Basic cluster building how-to
  4) Needs and methods for unattended analysis (pipelining)
  5) Best practise BIC systems, how to get them, use them and
syncronise your own
        machine with them. (offline files, SAMBA, rsync, unison, etc)

Of course if you are interested in other things feel free to put them
in a reply to me and I will see what I can do.

Thanks
