NeuroFedora SIG

NeuroFedoraLogo01.png

The NeuroFedora SIG's goal is to provide neuroscience researchers (and enthusiasts!) a strong, easy to use, ready-made FOSS platform for their work.

The first step towards this objective is to package as many of the tools that neuroscientists use to make them available in Fedora.

(A self-contained change request proposed by this SIG in the past is detailed here)

Communication and getting help

Artwork

Terezahl made us some awesome artwork for use in various locations, such as the website, and other posts (and T-shirts?!). These live on their own page here: SIGs/NeuroFedora/Artwork.

Who we are

NeuroFedora was founded by Morgan Hough (mhough) <morgan.hough@gmail.com> and Igor Gnatenko (ignatenkobrain) <i.gnatenko.brain@gmail.com>.

It is currently maintained by members of the neuro-sig.

Join us!

We encourage everyone to join the group. We're more than happy to help new members learn the skills required to participate in the project. Please contact us using the methods outlined above.

Since we use infrastructure provided by the Fedora community, one must have a Fedora account to access it. It can be created here.

There is no formal process for participating. Simply apply to the Neuro-sig FAS group to gain access to the package set. While one is required to already be a package maintainer to join the group, we're happy to help you learn packaging and join the package maintainers group by co-maintain packages with us.

Meetings

We shall have them, and see how it goes.

Software

Suggest more software!
Please use this form to suggest more software for inclusion in NeuroFedora.

Adding new software

When submitting a new neuro-related package for review, please add "Blocks: fedora-neuro" to your review-request.

When the package is approved. please modify the settings of the package on src.fedoraproject.org and give the neuro-sig group commit rights so that we can help maintain the whole package set.
