Keep on staying home ... and contribute to Debian Med
Starting with the official Covid-19 hackathon in April 2020 the Debian
Med project received a lot of new contributions. We have new
contributors, increased effort of bug fixing and autopkgtest writing,
increased support by other teams in Debian, new communication channels
(weekly video conference) and a broader attention in the world of
bioinformatics. All in all the Covid-19 “crisis” gave the Debian Med
project a huge push forward. As reported on DebConf Online the energy
that was put into the Debian Med project by several new and old
contributors was reduced a bit after the sprint but the activity inside
the Debian Med project remains way higher than before the Covid-19
outbreak. This talk will contain detailed numbers about the effect of
Covid-19 had on the Debian Med team in the last year.
