more to come soon.
What are we going to do?
We are first planning to match packages from the debian-based neurodebian project excluding the debian packaging related tools. The second phase would be to publish a paper outlining the work here again following the neurodebian project paper. The third phase would be to publish a research paper describing new tools available in NeuroFedora
Participation
There is no formal process for participating; joining the mailing list, hanging out on IRC, or participating in meetings are all great ways to get involved.
A little self-introduction on the mailing list would be nice, too. And, if you want to, add yourself to our members-section above.
