Dieuwertje Bloemen (Jan 28 2026 at 11:07):

I think it's a good idea. Do we have to submit anything for it? Also, for the poster, I wrote the abstract recapping what we've done and will be submitting it later today.

Philip Durbin 🚀 (Jan 28 2026 at 13:24):

Nope, we just need to let @Felipe Gómez-Cortés know.

Ha! Great title! :tada:

Philip Durbin 🚀 (Jan 28 2026 at 15:10):

The content too. Looks great!

Vaida Plankytė 🎨 (Jan 29 2026 at 09:49):

the abstract looks great to me too! i've commented on a couple grammar things, otherwise looks great.

Philip Durbin 🚀 (Feb 12 2026 at 14:46):

I just heard we should be able to have a hybrid meeting.

Julian Gautier (Feb 12 2026 at 15:49):

Hey everyone. Just passing along more info about the satellite meetings during this year's Dataverse Community Meeting.

Working group leads interested in meeting in-person and online on May 12 can use the DCM2026 registration form to request a meeting for the working group.

On the registration form, WG leads will need to include a list of in-person attendees, who won't be let in if they haven't registered and aren't on the list, and are responsible for letting group members know about the May 12 meeting and for any marketing for new members.

Philip Durbin 🚀 (Feb 13 2026 at 16:28):

@Julian Gautier thanks!

@Dieuwertje Bloemen how does this look? It's a doc to start collecting names of attendees: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1uQIZtN6yuqH2XlcfRxNKa3KGvbsxT-fHIUZzKOZGR2k/edit?usp=sharing

Philip Durbin 🚀 (Feb 13 2026 at 19:11):

I went ahead and added it to our web page under a new heading called "next in-person meeting"

It looks like this:

BTW: Our poster got accepted :tada:

Philip Durbin 🚀 (Mar 02 2026 at 13:01):

@Dieuwertje Bloemen great news!

@Vaida Plankytė 🎨 bummer! Enjoy the time with your family!

Amélie Fiocca (Mar 02 2026 at 16:41):

Hi everyone. I'm waiting for a response from my manager to find out if I can register for the DCM :fingers_crossed:

Philip Durbin 🚀 (Mar 02 2026 at 16:45):

@Amélie Fiocca that would be great! Tell them we NEED you! :heart:

Philip Durbin 🚀 (Apr 14 2026 at 16:25):

The tentative schedule was just sent around:

Dieuwertje Bloemen (Apr 24 2026 at 14:54):

Here's a first version of the poster. I just need to add a part at the bottom to attribute the use of AI for the creature image creation and to maybe allow space for a QR code for the training resources form if we want to promote that there (I'm not sure it's ready yet?) If you have any ideas/suggestions on how to improve it, let me know. I initially wanted to add like "attack power" score tags to each creature, but not sure how to make that relevant to documentation :sweat_smile:

Philip Durbin 🚀 (Apr 27 2026 at 12:25):

@Dieuwertje Bloemen back from vacation! This looks great!

Philip Durbin 🚀 (Apr 27 2026 at 12:25):

Even without the QR code, you have a link at the bottom, which may be good enough.

Vaida Plankytė 🎨 (Apr 27 2026 at 12:41):

did i misunderstand a pun or is there a typo in "fantactic"? is it to do with tactics?

Vaida Plankytė 🎨 (Apr 27 2026 at 12:44):

for attack power, good idea, the structure and idea is really cute (though i must shake my grumpy fist at AI-generated graphics! :sweat_smile:), maybe just a simple document icon with three levels of "attack power" (could just be 1 red/2 yellow/3 green pluses next to the icon or something) to showcase the impact of each?

Dieuwertje Bloemen (Apr 28 2026 at 07:44):

Indeed, a typo. Will fix it.
And I agree that real art/graphics by a person would be nicer, but I'm so unskilled in actually executing what I have in mind that this was as best as I can do with the time (I will say, I described them very detailed, so not the entire creative process was AI). But I can only do stick figures, so that wouldn't have looked good. I'll see if I can just add something small to indicate time spent or impact in some way.

Amélie Fiocca (Apr 28 2026 at 08:32):

Here's the form, what do you think?
It includes all the languages of the ISO standard to be as inclusive as possible! :sweat_smile: but maybe it's too much...
Gristform

Then I could generate a QR code like this, for example?

I've had this experience too. It's work! And requires creativity! :smile:

Philip Durbin 🚀 (Apr 28 2026 at 11:53):

If we had budget, we could hire @Vaida Plankytė 🎨 to make art for us. Or my brother. Maybe we should write a grant. :crazy:

Oliver Bertuch (May 04 2026 at 18:06):

@Philip Durbin 🚀 I just signed up for the meeting, as the deadline was extended!

Deirdre Kirmis (May 04 2026 at 21:43):

Same!

Philip Durbin 🚀 (May 04 2026 at 23:55):

@Oliver Bertuch @Deirdre Kirmis great! The more the merrier!

Bryan Gee (May 05 2026 at 17:05):

Put my name down as well!

Philip Durbin 🚀 (May 06 2026 at 18:41):

@Bryan Gee sure! It looks like someone (probably @Dieuwertje Bloemen) already added you to https://docs.google.com/document/d/1uQIZtN6yuqH2XlcfRxNKa3KGvbsxT-fHIUZzKOZGR2k/edit?usp=sharing

In this pdf, you can find all information on how to get to the working group meeting on the 12th. The meeting will be at 9:00, but please make sure you're at the BSC reception 20-10 minutes beforehand, as they'll collect us from there and lead us to the relevant room. For more information, read the pdf.
See you all next Tuesday :smiling_face:
