Dear ynic-users
At the Thursday evening sessions this term we have been describing the changes in YNiC and building up to the first official release of YNiC software and documentation. We are very pleased to be able to announce that the release date will be the 8th of January 2008. This is earlier than we had originally planned and reflects the enormous amount of effort that everyone has put into getting the software and documents into a complete package. This could not have been done without the co-operation of the users who carried out the beta testing. Further information about the complete contents of the first release will be circulated next week.
We had initially planned to hold masterclasses this term to go through current software and applications. But as we can now confidently say that the new software will be released early in the new year, it makes sense to hold the masterclasses after that release so that everyone can take full advantage of all the new features and the more complete help documentation. Therefore we would like to postpone the masterclasses.
Instead we would like to hold the roundtable discussion on the use of the eye-tracker. We also have a new user who would like to make a project presentation.
We would like to suggest that the Thursday sessions now look like this for the rest of term
Thursday 29th Nov 2007 : Project presentation by Dr. Srimant Tripathy from Bradford Thursday 6th December : Roundtable discussion on use of the eye-trackers Thursday 13th December : Project presentation by Gary Green Thursday 20th December : Christmas drinks
and then
Thursday 10th January 2008 : The new software and documentation Thursday 17th Jan : Masterclass on the new visualisation software Thursday 24th Jan : Masterclass on MEG analysis techniques Thursday 31st Jan : Masterclass on MRI analysis techniques
We then propose that we start the roundtable discussions about what should be in the second release
comments welcome
